Setup Guide
Installing the Wittime Weather Station WT2039A is a straightforward and effortless process. Insert the batteries into the device and position the outside sensor unit in a location that has optimal exposure to the environment. After positioning the sensor unit, establish a wireless connection to link it with the primary weather station device. The device can be easily connected to your computer or smartphone using the included USB cable, or by using the free Wittime Weather app.
Weather trend
For the temperature and humidity values measured by the base unit and the wireless sensor, the trend is displayed in the form of an arrow:
Trend | rising | constant | falling |
Temperature | |||
Humidity |
Weather forecast
After setting up initially, the weather forecast can not be used for about 12 hours, as the weather station needs this time to collect and evaluate the weather data. The weather forecast is a result of the collected data and the measured changes in air pressure. The forecast refers to the area around the weather station with a radius of about 30 to 50 km for the next 12 to 24 hours.
Sunny
partly cloudy
Overcast
Rain
Thuderstom
Sonwfall
Heavy snowfall
Temperature alarm
If the wireless sensor measures a temperature between 33.8 °F and 26.6°F, there is a risk of frost and a snowflake symbol will flash. If the temperature falls below 26.6°F for an extended period of time, the snowflake symbol will be constantly displayed.
Note: Even if the temperature alarm is not displayed, when the temperature is around freezing point, there is generally always a risk of frost and/or black ice. The outdoor sensor can only measure the local temperature in the place where it is installed.
Information: Only applies if more than one wireless sensor is in use: For the temperature alarm, the wireless sensor with the lowest sensor number is always analysed.
When the symbol for the weather forecast begins to flash and the air pressure falls, this is a sign that the weather is getting worse, e.g. due to an approaching storm front. When the air pressure increases again, the symbols display continuously again. An arrow shows the weather tendency. If it is pointing up or down, the air pressure has risen or gone down more than 0.059 inHg (2 hPa) in an hour.
rising air pressure = weather will improve
constant air pressure = weather will stay the same
falling air pressure = weather will get worse
