POWER SUPPLY
Weather Station works with 2 AA batteries for the main unit and 2 AAA for the remote sensor (all
not included).
Battery installation
1. Main Unit: Use your finger to lift the battery door located at the back of the main unit. Insert
2 AA batteries according to the polarity. Close back the battery compartment.
2. Remote Sensor: Use a screwdriver to open the battery door located at the back of the remote
sensor unit. Insert 2 AA batteries according to the polarity. Close back the battery
compartment and tighten the screw.
LOW BATTERY INDICATION: If the batteries of the remote sensor are low, the following
indicator
. will be displayed on the main unit. The indicator will also be displayed on the
bottom left corner of the remote sensor’s screen. When the main unit’s LCD display becomes dim,
it indicates that the batteries are low and need to be changed.
Note: if the sensor is exposed to very low temperatures for an extended period of time, the
batteries may lose power which may cause the transmission range to be limited. High
temperatures also reduce the battery performance.
GETTING STARTED
Setting the Main unit
1. Remove battery cover and insert 2xAA size batteries, ensure correct polarity + / - as shown in
the compartment, replace the cover.
SETUP
Automatic Learn Function:
Learn function executes automatically and runs for approximately 3 minutes when the batteries
are first installed in the receiver. Within these 3 minutes, the receiver picks up the temperature &
humidity signals from the remote sensor and displays the readings.
Manual-Learning (Searching for Remote Signals)
If a new remote sensor is added or if the signal is lost (outdoor display blinking), the learning
function must be executed again.
1. Press and hold CHN for 3 seconds to start.
2. A beep sound indicates that the learning function has started.
3. The 'Channel' symbol will flash and unit will beep as each remote sensor is detected.
4. Temperature & humidity readings of remote sensor are displayed on the receiver.
Fixing your sensor & receiver
The remote sensor has a wall mount holder. To fix it on a wall, fix the holder on a hook or nail.
The remote sensor should be fixed on a smooth surface to prevent altering the range of the date
transmission. To ensure a good transmission, the remote sensor should not install on or near a
large metal surface. Before choosing the location of the remote sensor, test that the receiver can
receive the signals. It is also recommended that the remote sensor is placed as close as possible to
the receiver to eliminate any interference. The receiver also has a wall mount holder and a stand.
To place it, use the same precautions as for the remote sensor.
Backlight:
The default state of the Backlight is Off. To turn the backlight on, press any button. It will stay on
for about 10 seconds.
CLOCK AND DATE SETTINGS
RADIO CONTROL CLOCK (WWVB---TBA)
- The WS1233 is designed to automatically synchronize its calendar clock once it is brought
within the reception range of a radio signal.
1. The clock automatically starts scanning the RF 433MHz signal after new batteries are inserted
in the main unit. When receiving radio signal, the Radio Tower symbol starts to blink. A complete
reception generally takes several minutes, depending on the strength of the radio signal. The scan
can also be triggered manually by holding the Min/- key for 3 seconds.
2. When the reception is complete, the Radio Tower symbol will stop blinking and remain solid.
The clock automatically scans the time signal at 02:07 everyday to maintain accurate timing.
Notes:
• For an optimal reception, place the clock away from metal objects and electrical appliances (i.e.
television, computer, monitor, etc.) to minimize interference.
• If the user sets the time (year/month/date/hour/minute) manually, the unit will stop receiving the
radio control clock signals.

MOON PHASES
Throughout the 28 days of the lunar month, the aspect of the moon changes. Indeed, the moon,
being spherical, is always half lightened up by the sun. As the moon rotates around the Earth, the
appearance of its lightened side changes continuously. This phenomenon creates moon phases.
The moon phase is automatically updated according to the year/ month/day.

WEATHER FORECAST & DISPLAY
Animated weather forecast symbols
This weather station is capable of detecting barometric pressure changes, and based on the data
collected, can predict the weather
for the next 12 to 24 hours. The effective range covers an area of 30 – 50km.
Sunny
Cloudy
Raining
Snowing
Freeze Warning
Storm Alert
Storm Alert
The storm symbol will flash to warn of a thunderstorm.
It is activated when pressure falls/rises and temperature plunges.
About Snow and Freeze Warning
The snow symbol will flash to warn that it might snow.
Activated when the temperature of Channel 1 is between -1.9 °C & +2.9 °C.
The snow symbol will appear solid when the temperature of channel 1 falls below - 1.9 °C, and it
is freezing.
Note:
The remote sensor set at channel 1 displays the weather forecast icons (as well as the trend
indication). Please place it outdoors.
REMARKS:
After having completed the settings of your weather station, please discard the readings of the
weather forecast for the next 12-24 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Weather Station
to operate at a constant altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast. Absolute accuracy
cannot be guaranteed regarding weather forecasting. 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 to be used in. If the Weather Station is moved to another location significantly higher or
lower than its initial standing point (e.g. from ground floor to 1st floor of a house), remove the
batteries and reinsert them after about 30 seconds. By doing this, the Weather Station will
mistakenly consider the new location as a possible change in air pressure. Again, discard the
weather forecasts for the next 12-24 hours as to allow time for operation at a constant altitude.
