3 Introduction Thank you for selecting the Honeywell Complete Wireless Weat her Station. This compact and easy-to-use product uniquely measures and monitors weather data right at your immediate lo cation. It includes a wide range of weather features plus precise atomic time and perpetual calendar .
4 Before you begin The components of this Honeywell Complete Wireless Weather Station operate at 433MHz radio frequency. No interconnecting wires are required between the main uni t (receiver) and the remote sensors (transmitters). Note: Y our weather station comes with alkaline batteries included in each weather instrument.
5 • Make sure that the remote sensors are easily accessible for cleaning and maintenance. Note: When the temperature falls below freezing, the outdoor sensor batteries may have reduced voltage and a reduced effective range. We recommend using lithium ba tteries at temperatur es below 32°F (0°C).
6 • Set one sensor to Channel 1 and the second sensor to Channel 2, etc. The sensor s must operate on separate channels. Install 2 “AA” size batteries matching the polarities shown in the battery compartment.
7 D . Funnel-shaped top with battery compartment Contains battery compartment and rainfall counting electronics E. Battery compartment Holds two AA-size batteries F . Screws Secures battery compartment cover G . Built-in level with bubble Ensures level rain gauge mounting for proper operation H .
8 • Place the protective screen over the top to protect the rain gauge from the debris. • Where practical, mount the rain gauge in place with wood screws (not included). • Make sure that the rain gauge is in open area where precipit ation falls directly into the gauge’s bucket, ideally 2-3 feet above the ground.
9 E. WIND CUPS SHAFT Holds wind cups on the anemometer arm F . BA TTERY COMP ARTMENT Holds 2 AA-size batteries G. W ALL MOUNT SCREW OPENINGS Allows securing the anemometer in place H. BA TTER Y COVER Secures battery compartment on the anemometer base Assembly • Slide the wind cups on to the anemomet er rotating shaft.
10 unit (0.0 mph will appear on the ma in unit’ s wind window if the signal was sent and received successfully) Aligning This procedure must be performed after main unit has been powered and all remote weather sensors were received successfully . • Manually point the wind direction vane to the nor th (use a compass or map if necessary).
11 • Barometric pressure in imperial or metric units • Altitude adjustment for pressure compensation • 24 hour barometric pressure history chart • Multiple weather alerts including: Hi /Low te.

17 Pressure and Weather Forecast Window Y our weather station is designed to displa y (local) barometric pressure, sea level pr essure, weather forecast and moon phases.
18 desired at a later date, using the steps outlined in the section for Setting or Changing Pressure and Altitude settings. Changing Pressure and Altitude Parameters The weather station is designed to measure local pressure and calculate the other two parameters based on the Local Pressure.
19 • Press and hold SET until the altitude digits are flashing. • Set the altitude value by pressing the UP or DOWN arrow buttons. Press and hold UP or DOWN arrow button for faster digits advancement • Press SET button to confirm your selection.
20 Weather Forecast Displays Note: The weather forecast accuracy is approximately 70%. Displa y shows 12 to 24 hour forecas t, not current conditions. The SUNNY icon indicates clear weather, ev en when displayed dur ing the night-time.
21 remote channels Thermo-Hygromete r remote battery status is monitored on the main unit. Display: Selecting T emperatur e and Humidity Window Press main unit UP or DOWN arrow buttons until the IN icon on the upper right will flash.
22 with icon (if disabled, displays OFF ). Y ou can program the same temperature alarm limits fo r all five temperature and humidity channels Programming Upper and Lower lim its for T emperature Alarm.
23 Viewing Rain Statistics With the rain icon flashing Press either SET or MEMOR Y button to recall a rain statisti cs for the past hour , past 24 hours, yesterday , past week or past month. Note: Last Hour rainfall value is displayed as a rate of rain in either “inch/hr” or “mm/hr”.
24 records the maximum wind speed and gusts collected during the day . Wind speed and gust alerts can be programmed based on pre-configured limits. Wind speed is di splayed in km/h, mph, m/s or knots . Selecting Wind Window Press main unit UP or DOWN until the WIND icon on the display starts flashing.
25 If the alert is disabled, “OFF” will be displayed; otherwise the alert value is show n. When a wind alert is displayed, press UP or DOWN arrow button to activate or deactivate it. Wind Alert programming • With the wind icon flashing, press ALARM/CHART button to select the desired alarm.
26 • Set the alarm minutes using UP or DOWN arrow button . Press and hold either button for qui ck digit advance. • Press ALARM/CHART button to confirm selection. • Set a Snooze interval (both alarms share same snooze time duration) using UP or DOWN arrow button.
27 Remote Sensor Status The wave icon above the current channel display shows t he connection status of the corresponding remote sensor: Activate Search for Remote Sensors Normally the main display will automatically find and displa y measurement results from t he remote sensors.
28 Changing Batteries in the Main Unit • First connect the AC/DC adaptor provided to the main unit to avoid losing any data. • Remove the battery compartment door at the back and replace all batteries . Do not mix old and new batteries. • Replace the battery compartment door .
29 Check or replace the batteries for the corresponding sensor . Then press and hold DOWN arrow button on the main unit to search for all remote signals. If this does not work, check the wireless trans mission path from the corresponding sensor to the main unit and change locations to improve reception.
