1. General aspects and Function The TouchScreen Wireless Weather Station WS 550 US is a high-quality, highly comfortable universal weather measurement system that can record, process and display data from a maximum of 8 (currently not available) additional wireless temperature and humidity sensors as well as a combi-sensor up to a distance of 400 ft. (outdoor range). The combination sensor TX 550 US belonging to the weather station is meant for outdoor use and captures the following: Te

The weather forecast also plays an equally important role. So "Oscar Outlook" has different displays and clothing depending on the weather situation. You will find a detailed description of the evaluation criteria in chapter 3.4 of this Operating Instructions manual. Display the sunrise andsunset time - Calculation can be done in the latitude range of -60° to +60˚ N depending on the location data that is to be entered.

2.1. Preparing the weather station The weather station is exclusively operated via the plug-in mains adapter that is delivered. Battery operations are possible with 4 AA cells (1.5 V, alkaline type) in an emergency mode. The functions of the weather station are then available only in a restricted manner (e. g. no background lighting, no live mode available). The following image shows the rear of the station with battery comportment, correct insertion of the batteries, assembling points for

Inserting batteries Remove the cover of the battery compartment and insert four 1.5 V AA-cells, (alka- line type LR6) according to the correct poles into the battery compartment. Close the battery compartment again. PC-connection To connect the station to a PC, use the USB cable to connect the mini USB jack to the USB port of WS 550 US. The plug at the other end of the cable is connected to the USB port of a PC (also see chapter 9.) Installing / Mounting Depending on the requirement, the w

2. Lock in the foot support in the lock- ing nose of the glass foot and place it on the two screw domes. 3. Screw the enclosed Allen key and 2 Allen screws on the glass foot. Please note that the lighting cable of the device foot is guided in from the side as shown in the picture so that it does not get crushed. 4. Place the weather station at the locking nose of the foot support and tilt it on the foot support till the screw dome neatly grips into the corresponding intakes of the weat

5. Screw the foot support on to the weather station using the enclosed Allen key and 2 Allen screws. 6. The cables are thus connected, inserted into the foot support and guided. Please note that the cable lies exactly in the center as shown so that it will not prevent the lid from subse- quently locking in. Note! The cable for lighting the sup- port foot and the USB cable can only be inserted in one direction! Do not insert it using force! Stow away excessive cable in a chamber

- After connecting the plug-in AC adapter, the system will run a short test of all display segments in the display (all segments will be displayed). - You will then hear a short beep and the version number of the weather station will be displayed. - Finally, the inside temperature and the humidity as well as the air pressure will be displayed. The corresponding sensors are directly built in the base station. - Now the external sensors need to be started up. 2.2.Combi-sensor TX 550 U

4. Insert the plug into the socket of the wind meter 5. Push up the base and then lock it by turning it to the right pipe-end that is marked with a sticker. - Install the fully mounted sensor within the possible transmitter radius (max. 400 ft. free field; take into account the dampening due to building walls, etc.) so that it stands in open space - the rain can thus fall directly into the rain sensor and the wind measurement is not hampered by adjacent buildings or trees - 50 ft. clearen

- Open the sensor housing by rotating it towards the left and pulling down the cas- ing (see picture below). - Use a pointed object to press the key above the battery compartment and insert three AA Alkaline batteries according to the polarity marking in the battery com- partment. Release the switch and then remove any adhesive tape that you may used to secure the wind meter. - Bring the respective receiving station in the receiving mode according to the instructions of the corresponding O

3. Operations The wireless sensor data is not shown on the display immediately after installing the wireless sensors and starting up the base device. As each sensor has an in- ternal individual serial number, which is automaticly logged into the base station during start up. The advantage here is that data is individually recorded only for those sensors that are logged in and not for other sensors, say of neighboring systems, and also not after a restart. Please note! If no input field i
