3.3.6. WIND
The segment displays information about the wind.
There are two arrows inside the circular compass rose
(if overlapping, only one will be seen). The thicker arrow
shows the last wind direction measured 16 seconds earlier
or less. The thinner arrow shows the average wind direction
during the previous 16 seconds interval. This allows insight
into the change in wind direction.
If the symbol is displayed in the segment, pressing the
SET button will display the wind speed, gusts and wind
direction in degrees.
If the symbol is displayed in the segment, the following
will appear in turn:
1. maximum wind speed for the current day
2. maximum wind speed since the last reset
3. maximum gust speed for the current day
4. maximum gust speed since the last reset
3.3.7. WINDCHILL TEMPERATURE, DEW POINT, HEAT INDEX

2. maximum wind speed since the last reset
3. maximum gust speed for the current day
4. maximum gust speed since the last reset
3.3.7. WINDCHILL TEMPERATURE, DEW POINT, HEAT INDEX
The segment will display values related to temperature and
pressure. The values that can be displayed by pressing the
SET button are the wind chill temperature, heat index and
dew point. The dew point is calculated based on the sensor
values (temperature and humidity). The dew point is the
temperature to which the air must be cooled in order to
be saturated and above which the water vapor in the air
becomes liquid (dew).
If the symbol is displayed in a segment, the following
will appear in turn:
• minimum wind chill temperature for the current day
• minimum wind chill temperature since the last reset
• maximum dew point temperature for the current day
• minimum dew point temperature for the current day
• maximum dew point temperature since the last reset
• minimum dew point temperature since the last reset
• maximum heat index of the current day
• maximum heat index of the day since the last reset
3.3.8. RAINFALL
If the symbol is displayed in the segment, pressing the
SET button will display in turn:
• RAIN INDICATOR - the accumulated amount of
rainfall over the last 60 minutes
• RAINFALL PERIOD - a single rainfall period not
interrupted by a zero rainfall intensity
• DAY - rainfall around the clock
• WEEK - rainfall for 7 days
• MONTH - total rainfall from the first till the last day
of the month
• YEAR - defined by the calendar year
• TOTAL RAIN - total rainfall since power on or reset
If the symbol is displayed in a segment, the following
will appear in turn:
• maximum rainfall for the current day
• maximum rainfall since the last reset
• data on maximum rainfall for the current day
• data on maximum rainfall for the last week
• data on maximum rainfall for the last month
• data on maximum rainfall for the past year
3.3.9. SETTINGS
In normal mode, press the SET button for 2 seconds to
enter the settings mode. Then press the „ ", button to
switch between the different setting functions:
• time settings
• unit settings
• auto save interval
• rain season settings
• barometric settings
• key tone settings
• calibration
• transmitter ID
When the selected setting function is displayed, press
button to enter the slave setting menu. To change the value
of the settings, use the or buttons. By holding
down the or button for 2 seconds, the value will
increase / decrease continuously. Pressing the HISTORY
button or waiting for 30 seconds will cause the unit to
return to normal mode.
CALIBRATION
In the settings, you can change the values obtained
from the sensors before being displayed or saved. After
entering the calibration, press the „ ", button to enter
the following calibration settings:
1) indoor temperature calibration
2) room humidity calibration
3) outdoor temperature calibration
4) Outdoor humidity calibration
5) Calibrating absolute barometric pressure
6) Calibrating relative barometric pressure.
7) Wind direction (can be adjusted from 0 to 359°. If the
station is installed in the southern hemisphere, the
wind direction should be changed by 180°).
34
8) Wind speed: the default wind speed calibration
factor is 1 (the range is 0.1-2.5)
9) Rainfall: the default rain factor calibration factor is 1
(the range is 0.1-2.5)
10) One-day rainfall calibration (the range is 0-9999 mm
or equivalent in other units)
11) One-week rainfall calibration (the range is 0-9999
mm or equivalent in other units)
12) One-month rainfall calibration (the range is 0-9999
mm)
13) One-year rainfall calibration (the range is 0-9999
mm)
14) Rainfall calibration since the last reset (the range is
0-9999 mm).
Note: Before adjusting the wind speed or rainfall, make
sure that the outdoor sensor set is horizontally mounted,
the device can move freely and there is no "slippage" on
the axle (make sure the locating screw is tightened).
3.3.10. ALARM MODE
Press the ALARM button to set the alarm limit for the
highest values, press the ALARM button again to set the
alarm limit for the lowest values.
When the alarm mode is on, the device will produce a loud
sound and the icon will start flashing. The message
panel will display a corresponding message. Press any
button to silence the alarm. The flashing alarm icon will
stay on until the alarm condition is no longer met (e.g.
temperature drops below the alarm value, etc.)
a) Setting the high-value limits
By pressing the or buttons you can switch between
the different possible alarms. Pressing the or
buttons enables you to change the value for the alarm
concerned. Pressing the SET button turns the alarm on or
off.
• time alarm
• high indoor temperature alarm
• high room humidity alarm
• high outdoor temperature alarm
• high outdoor humidity alarm
• high absolute pressure alarm
• high relative pressure alarm
• high wind speed alarm
• high gust speed alarm
• high dewpoint alarm

• low room humidity alarm
• low outdoor temperature alarm
• low outdoor humidity alarm
• low absolute pressure alarm
• low relative pressure alarm
• low wind chill temperature alarm
• low dewpoint alarm
To return to normal mode, press the HISTORY button or
wait 30 seconds.
3.3.11. MIN / MAX MODE
Press the MIN / MAX button to view all minimum /
maximum weather parameter records. By pressing the MIN
/ MAX button again, you can switch between the records
in turn:
• maximum values recorded for the current day.
• maximum values recorded since the last reset
• minimum values recorded for the current day
• minimum values recorded since the last reset.
Pressing the or button allows you to switch between
the maximum / minimum records of different weather
values with respect to the time and date. Each maximum /
minimum value can be deleted by pressing the SET button
for 2 seconds. To return to normal mode press the HISTORY
button or wait 30 seconds.
3.3.12. HISTORY
Press the HISTORY button to navigate to the individual data
in the internal memory (the base station can record a total
of 3,552 entries). If there is no recorded data, "HISTORY
NONE RECORD" will be displayed.
Press the or button to go to the next / previous
record. Pressing the or button will go to the next /
previous page. Pressing and holding the "SET" button for 2
seconds will clear the entire memory.

3.4. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

a) Wait for the rotating elements to stop.
b) Use only non-corrosive cleaners to clean the surface.
c) Store the unit in a dry, cool place, free from moisture
and direct exposure to sunlight.
d) The device must be regularly inspected to check its
technical efficiency and spot any damage.
e) Use a soft, damp cloth for cleaning.
f) When replacing batteries, use an anti-corrosive
agent.
g) In a snowy environment, spray the top of the weather
station with anti-icing agent.

1. Turn the funnel counterclockwise.
2. Lift the funnel.
3. Clean the rain meter with a soft, damp cloth. If
insects need to be removed, it is recommended to
use an insecticide before cleaning.
4. Insert the funnel in its original position and tighten it
