GETTING STARTED

POWER SUPPLY

Batteries serve as a back-up power supply. For continuous

use of weather icon colour effect and backlight, adaptor must

be installed.

1 adaptor

Use the adaptor supplied to power the unit.

Make sure the adaptor is not obstructed and is easily

accessible to the unit.

NOTE The main unit and adaptor should not be exposed to

wet conditions. No objects filled with liquid, such as vases,

should be placed on the main unit and adaptor.

To completely disconnect from power, unplug adaptor from

the mains.

2 CR2032 batteries for memory backup

To insert batteries:

1. Remove the battery compartment cover.

2. Insert the batteries, matching the polarities (+/ -).

3. Press RESET after each battery change.

MEANING

Battery is low in power

No battery installed – only AC adaptor

SET UP REMOTE SENSOR

The main unit can be connected to only 1 remote sensor.

1. Slide open the battery door.

2. Insert battery, matching the polarities (+ / -).

3. Select channel then press RESET.

4. Close the battery door.

NOTE Use alkaline batteries for longer usage and consumer

grade lithium batteries in temperatures below freezing.

DATA TRANSMISSION

SENSOR

The main unit will automatically search for sensor.

To search for a sensor manually:

Press and hold + together.

For best results:

• Place the sensor within 30 m (100 ft) of the main unit.

• Position the sensor so that it faces the main unit,

minimizing obstructions such as doors, walls and

furniture.

• Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and moisture.

• Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to the

sky, away from metallic / electronic objects.

• Position the sensor close to the main unit during cold

winter months as below-freezing temperatures may

affect battery performance and signal transmission.

The remote sensor reception icon will show the

following status:

ICON DESCRIPTION

Main unit is searching

for sensor(s).

A channel has been

found.

The sensor cannot be

found.

NOTE The main unit will search only for already registered

sensor or new sensor reset within the last 30 minutes. If unit

failed to synchronise with remote sensor, reset the sensor or

try selecting a different channel (and press RESET) before

manually forcing another search.

TIP The transmission range may vary depending on many

factors. You may need to experiment with various locations

to get the best results.

CLOCK

CLOCK RECEPTION

This product is designed to synchronise its clock automatically

with a clock signal.

BAR220:

• EU: DCF-77 signal: within 1500 km (932 miles) of

Frankfurt, Germany.

BAR220A:

• US: WWVB-60 signal: within 3200km (2000 miles) of

Fort Collins Colorado.

BAR220U:

• UK: MSF-60 signal: within 1500 km (932 miles) of

Anthorn, England.

To enable / disable signal reception:

Press and hold to enable or to disable signal

reception.

NOTE Reception takes 2-10 minutes. If the signal is weak,

it can take up to 24 hours to get a valid signal.

Clock signal reception indicator:

MEANING

Continuous Strong signal

Flashes No signal

NOTE The unit searches for a clock signal everyday at

01:00, 02:00 and 03:00, as well as 3 minutes after switching

on or resetting unit. During signal search:

1) display (i.e., time and temperature) will be turned off

temporarily

2) only flashing will be displayed

3) weather icon will remain lit however the colour will be

static.

Signal search may take approx. 10 minutes and display will

resume thereafter. To view display temporarily during signal

search, press any key.

If signal reception is unsuccessful, place your unit next to a

window, press and hold to force another signal search.

MANUALLY SET CLOCK

To set the clock manually, disable the clock signal reception

first.

1. Press and hold to enter.

2. Press or to increase / decrease values of the

selected setting.

3. Press to confirm.

The settings order is: time zone offset, 12/24 hr format, hour,

minute.

Time zone offset sets the clock +/- 23 hours from the received

clock signal time. If you have deactivated the clock signal

reception, do not set a value for time zone.

NOTE If you enter +1 in the time zone setting, this will give

you your regional time plus 1 hour.

If you are in the US (BAR220A only) set the clock to:

0 for Pacific time +1 for Mountain time

+2 for Central time +3 for Eastern time

• Slide TOGGLE switch to DEMO.

Both the weather icons and the time / temperature displays

will auto-toggle.

IMPORTANT The colour-dance is only for aesthetic

reasons. The weather icons will be displayed in a loop

sequence, therefore, the displayed icons have no bearing on

actual weather conditions.

To manually toggle display:

• Press

OR

To change display brightness:

• Slide DIMMER switch to HI / LO.

NOTE Auto toggle mode will be disabled if a button is
