La Crosse Technology WS-7015 - Manual (Page 3)

- Calculation and display of the windchill equivalent temperature (perceived
temperature).
- Dew points, which are separately computed for every one of the 9
temperature/humidity sensors.
- Air pressure, selectable in inHg or hPa.
- Air pressure tendency (constant, increasing, strongly increasing, decreasing,
strongly decreasing).
- Graphic display of the air pressure changes within the last 24 hours.
- Icon display for weather forecast (sunny, bright, cloudy, rainy).
- Wind strength, selectable in mph, km/h, m/s, knots or Beaufort.
- Wind direction in form of a compass with display of the variations of wind direction
(in place of the wind strength the wind direction can be displayed with a 5º
resolution).
- Storage of minimum and maximum measured values for all sensors incl. assigned
time and date assertion (in case of wind strenght the assigned wind direction is
additionally displayed).
- Acquisition of rain volume with < 0.5 mm resolution (total, 24h, 1h).
- Programmable alarm cababilities at various weather conditions, e.g. danger of frost,
storm, adverse air pressure or temperature tendencies, e.g. at sea or in the
mountains or as an indication for the so called bio weather.
- All important weather informations are simultaneously displayed on the LCD, making
it unnecessary to perform any special handling of the device to recognize the
present weather.
- Several Base Stations can be operated simultaneously in order to display the sensor
data at various places at the same time. Additional Base Stations can be ordered
optionally.
Please read this Operation Manual carefully and completely before first setup in
order to avoid functional disturbances and mishandling.
Especially observe the notes on mounting and calibration of the measurement
sensors.
The indoor and outdoor sensor system of the Weather Station works by exclusive use of
remote data transmission. Remote sensors can thus be placed and mounted as far as
330 ft (100 m) from the Base Station in open field (strongly depending on the local
environmental conditions).
The outdoor sensors get their operating power from integrated solar cells. Please
therefore carefully observe the notes on placing and mounting of these components in
order to guarantee regular function of the total system.
Note!
Please note that for operation of the Weather Station there is at least one Remote
Sensor necessary since the Base Station itself does not contain any sensors.

6. Description of Measuring Devices (Sensors)
The sensor concept of the Professional Remote Weather Station consists of two sensor
groups. For operation of the Weather Station a Remote Indoor Sensor is generally
necessary. It transmits a fixed data telegram determining the display of temperature and
humidity in the display section for the indoor values in the upper left part of the LCD. The
sensor is immediately operable since addressing is only necessary in very rare
exceptional cases.
