ABOUT WWVB RADIO CONTROLLED TIME
The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology—Time and
Frequency Division) WWVB radio station is located in Ft. Collins,
Colorado, and transmits the exact time signal continuously throughout the
United States at 60 kHz. The signal can be received up to 2,000 miles
away through the internal antenna in the weather projection station.
However, due to the nature of the Earth’s Ionosphere, reception is very
limited during daylight hours. The wireless weather station will search for
a signal every night when reception is best.
BATTERY CHANGE:
It is recommended to replace the batteries in all units on an annual basis
to ensure optimum accuracy of these units.
Please participate in the preservation of the
environment. Return used batteries to an authorized
depot.
The WWVB radio station receives the time data from the NIST Atomic
clock in Boulder, Colorado. A team of atomic physicists is continually
measuring every second, of every day, to an accuracy of ten billionths of
a second per day. These physicists have created an international
standard, measuring a second as 9,192,631,770 vibrations of a Cesium-
133 atom in a vacuum. For more detail, visit
(303)499-7111. This number will connect you to an automated time,
announced at the top of the minute in “Coordinated Universal Time”,
which is also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). This time does not
follow Daylight Saving Time changes. After the top of the minute, a tone

will sound for every second. It is possible that your wireless weather
station may not be exactly on the second due to the variance in the
quartz. However, the clock will adjust the quartz timing over the course of
several days to be very accurate; under 0.10 seconds per day.

Note: The MIN or MAX data needs to be reset individually.
The icons displayed forecast the weather in terms of getting better or
worse and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For
example, if the current weather is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it
does not mean that the product is faulty because it is not raining. It simply
means that the air pressure has dropped and the weather is expected to
get worse but not necessarily rainy.
WEATHER FORECAST AND WEATHER TENDENCY:
WEATHER FORECASTING ICONS:
Weather icons in the third section of LCD can be displayed in any of the
following combinations:
Note:
FORECAST
FORECAST
FORECAST
After setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for
the next 48-60 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Weather station
to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and therefore result in a
more accurate forecast.
Sunny
Cloudy with sunny intervals
Rainy
Common to weather forecasting, absolute accuracy cannot be
guaranteed. The weather forecasting feature is estimated to have an
accuracy level of about 75% due to the varying areas the Weather station
has been designed for use in. In areas that experience sudden changes
in weather (for example from sunny to rain), the Weather station will be
more accurate compared to use in areas where the weather is constant
most of the time (for example mostly sunny).
For every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather
icons will update accordingly to represent the change in weather. If the
icons do not change, then it means either the air pressure has not
changed or the change has been too slow for the Weather station to
register. If the icon displayed is a sun or raining cloud, there will be no
change of icon if the weather gets any better (with sunny icon) or worse
(with rainy icon), since the icons are already at their extremes.
31
32
If the Weather station is moved to another location significantly higher or
lower than its initial standing point (for example from the ground floor to
the upper floors of a house), discard the weather forecast for the next 48-
60 hours. By doing this, the Weather Station will not mistake the new
location as being a possible change in air-pressure when really it is due
to the slight change of altitude.
Note: Once the weather tendency indicator has registered a change in air
pressure, it will remain permanently displayed on the LCD.
AIR PRESSURE HISTORY (ELECTRONIC BAROMETER WITH
BAROMETRIC PRESSURE TREND)
The third section of the LCD also shows the relative air pressure value
and the air pressure history.
WEATHER TENDENCY INDICATOR
Working together with the weather icons are the weather tendency
indicators (located on the left and right sides of the weather icons). When
the indicator points upwards, it means that the air-pressure is increasing
and the weather is expected to improve. When the indicator points
downwards, the air-pressure is dropping and the weather is expected to
become worse.
Air pressure over the last 24 hours
The bar chart indicates the air pressure history trend over the last 24
hours in 7 steps, 0h, -3h, -6h, -9h, -12h, -18h, and -24h. The “0h”
represents the current full hour air pressure recording. The columns
represent the “hPa” (0, ±2, ±4, ±6) at specific time. The “0” in the middle
of this scale is equal to the current pressure and each change (±2, ±4, ±6)
represents how high or low in “hPa“ the past pressure was compared to
the current pressure.
Taking this into account, one can see how the weather has changed and
is expected to change. For example, if the indicator is pointing
downwards together with cloud and sun icons, then the last noticeable
change in the weather was when it was sunny (the sun icon only).
Therefore, the next change in the weather will be cloud with rain icons
since the indicator is pointing downwards.
33
34
If the bars are rising it means that the weather is getting better due to the
increase of air pressure. If the bars go down, it means the air pressure
has dropped and the weather is expected to get worse from the present
time “0h“.

only) they were recorded press the OUT/+ key:
- Once to show the MAX outdoor temperature and humidity data

Note:
- Twice to show the MIN outdoor temperature and humidity data
with the recorded time and date.
For accurate barometric pressure trends, the Weather Station should
operate at the same altitude. For example, it should not be moved from
the ground to the second floor of the house. Should the unit be moved to
a new location, discard readings for the next 48-60 hours.
- Three times to return to the current displayed values.
Once the MIN or MAX data is displayed, press and hold the SET
key for 3 seconds to reset the respective MIN or MAX record to
current temperature and humidity data, and current time, date

If the outdoor temperature and humidity data are not being received
within three minutes after setting up (or outdoor display always show “-
-. -” in the outdoor section of the Weather station during normal
operation), please check the following points:
To reset the minimum and maximum temperature and humidity
data, and the times at which they were recorded, press the SET
key continuously for about 3 seconds. This will reset the MIN/MAX
data recorded to the current time, date, temperature and humidity.
The current time taken is the normal displayed time and does not
regard the time zone set for the unit.

separately.
LOW BATTERY INDICATOR
Low battery indicator is displayed on the LCD when the batteries in the
weather station require changing.
Using other electrical products such as headphones or speakers
operating on the 915MHz-signal frequency may prevent correct
signal transmission or reception. Neighbors using electrical devices
operating on the 915MHz-signal frequency can also cause
interference.
ABOUT THE OUTDOOR TRANSMITTER
The range of the Thermo-hygro transmitter may be affected by the
temperature. At cold temperatures, the transmitting distance may be
decreased. Please keep this in mind when positioning the transmitters.
Battery power may be reduced for the Thermo-hygro transmitter at cold
temperatures.
Note: When the 915MHz signal is received correctly, do not re-open the
battery cover of either the transmitter or Weather station, as the batteries
may spring free from the contacts and force a false reset. Should this
37
38
happen accidentally, reset all units (see “Setting up” above), or
FOLDOUT TABLE STANDS:
transmission problems may occur.
The foldout table stands legs are located on the
backside. Simply unfold the stands on the back. Once
the foldout table stands are extended, place the weather
station in an appropriate location.
The transmission range is around 300 feet from the Thermo-hygro
transmitter to the Weather station (in open space). However, this
depends on the surrounding environment and interference levels. If no
reception is possible despite the observation of these factors, all system
units have to be reset (see “Setting up” above).
POSITIONING THE WEATHER STATION
The Weather station provides the option of table standing or
wall mounting the unit. Before wall mounting, please check
that the outdoor data can be received from the desired
locations.
POSITIONING THE THERMO/HYGRO TRANSMITTER:
The remote thermo/hygro transmitter can be placed onto
any flat surface or wall mounted using the bracket which
doubles as a stand or wall mount base.
TO WALL MOUNT:
1. Fix a screw (not supplied) into the desired wall, leaving
the head extended out by about 0.2” (5mm).
2. Place the weather station onto the screw, using the
hanging hole on the backside. Gently pull the weather
station down to lock the screw into place.
TO WALL MOUNT:
1. Secure the bracket onto a desired
wall using the screws and plastic anchors.
39
40
Do not submerge the units in water. Furthermore, fix all parts in
place where the units are adequately protected against moisture
and rain.
Immediately remove all low powered batteries to avoid leakage and
damage. Replace only with new batteries of the recommended
type.
Do not make any repair attempts to the unit. Return them to their
original point of purchase for repair by a qualified engineer.
Opening and tampering with the unit may invalidate their
guarantee.
Do not expose the units to extreme and sudden temperature
changes, this may lead to rapid changes in forecasts and readings
and thereby reduce their accuracy.
2. Clip the remote temperature transmitter onto the
bracket.
Note:
The mounting surface can affect the transmission range. If, for instance,
the unit is attached to a piece of metal, it may then either reduce or
increase the transmitting range. For this reason, we recommend not to
place the unit on any metal surfaces or in any position where a large
metal or highly polished surface is in the immediate vicinity (garage
doors, double glazing, etc.). Before securing in place, please ensure that
the Temperature Station can receive the 915MHz signal from the
temperature transmitter at the positions that you wish to place them.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE:
SPECIFICATIONS:
Extreme temperatures, vibrations and shocks should be avoided as
these may cause damage to the unit and give inaccurate forecasts
and readings.
Temperature measuring range:
When cleaning the display and casings, use a soft damp cloth only.
Do not use solvents or scouring agents as they may mark the LCD
and casings.
