General information and functioning

The WS-2510 Touch Screen Wireless Weather Station represents a high-quality, extremely

convenient universal weather measuring system, which can record, process and display data

from up to 8 external wireless temperature and humidity sensors, a wireless wind sensor, a

wireless rainfall sensor and a wireless brightness sensor.

The operating concept of the weather station is remarkable. It does not use any operating

elements, but is operated solely via a large, touch-sensitive LC display.

The display can be illuminated permanently or on a time basis, so that it can be easily read under

nearly all light conditions.

The weather station can optionally be powered by means of batteries or with the plug-in power

adaptor provided (particularly recommended when the display is continuously lit or lit for any

length of time).

The display and control possibilities of the WS-2510 at a glance:

Display of the indoor temperature (in °F or °C) and humidity

Can be switched over to display the dew point indoors

Storage of the minimum and maximum temperature with the time/date of occurrence

Storage of the minimum and maximum humidity with the time/date of occurrence

Alarms can be set for high temperature, low temperature, high humidity and low humidity

Comfort zone indicator

Graphical history display for the last 24 h or 8 days (user selectable)

Display of one of 8 (max.) outdoor sensors (temperature in

F or

C and humidity)

Can be switched over to display the dew point or the wind chill temperature

Storage of the minimum and maximum temperature with the time/date of occurrence

Storage of the minimum and maximum humidity with the time/date of occurrence

Alarms can be set for high temperature, low temperature, high humidity and low humidity

Comfort zone indicator

Graphical history display for the last 24 h or 8 days (user selectable)

Display of wind speed with wind direction and variation

Wind speed units: km/h, m/s, mph, knots or Beaufort.

Storage of the maximum wind strength with direction and time/date of occurrence

An alarm value can be set for high wind speed

Graphical history display for the last 24 h or 8 days (user selectable)

Display of the amount of rainfall in mm, l/m

or inches

Can be switched between total rainfall /current hour /last hour /current day /last day

Storage of the maximum amount per hour and per day

Graphical history display for the last 24 h or 8 days (user selectable)

Display of the air pressure in hPa, mmHg or inHg

Can be switched between absolute or relative (higher level of correction) air pressure

Storage of the minimum and maximum air pressure with the time/date of occurrence

An alarm value can be set for high air pressure and low air pressure

Graphical history display for the last 24 h or 8 days (user selectable)

Symbolic indication of the weather forecast: rainy, cloudy, bright or sunny

Display of hours of sunshine

Can be switched between total hours of sunshine, last day or current day

The threshold for detecting sunshine is adjustable

Storage of the minimum and maximum hours per day with the time/date of occurrence

Graphical history display for the last 8 days

To obtain the best possible wireless emissions (high range) it is advisable not to place the rain sensor directly on the ground. By mounting the sensor about 3 feet (1m) above the ground the danger of soiling (especially the solar cells) is reduced. After screwing on the lower part to the base secur...
