Warranty
Your instrument has a one year warranty, against

material or manufacturing defects, from JDC

ELECTRONIC SA starting from the date of purchase.

The warranty does not cover damage caused by

incorrect use.

The wind measuring principle of

is based on the detection of a rotating

magnetic fi eld produced by an impeller. If the device is

subject to a strong magnetic fi eld produced by a

transformer or motor, it may happen that the instrument

shows undesirable values, without any rotation from

the impeller.

Garantie
Votre instrument est garanti par JDC ELECTRONIC

SA pendant une année à partir de la date d’achat

contre tout défaut matériel ou de fabrication. Sont

exclus de cette garantie les dommages causés par

une utilisation inadéquate.

Le principe de mesure de la vitesse du

est basé sur la détection du champ

magnétique tournant produit par l’hélice. Si l’appareil

est en présence d’un fort champ magnétique produit

par un transformateur ou un moteur, il se peut que

l’instrument indique des valeurs non désirées, en

l’absence de rotation de l’hélice.

Garantie
Ihr Gerät unterliegt ab Kaufdatum einer einjährigen

Garantie von JDC ELECTRONIC SA gegen jegliche

Material- oder Herstellungsmängel. Von dieser

Garantie ausgeschlossen sind Schäden, die auf eine

unsachgemäße Nutzung zurückzuführen sind.

Das Prinzip der Geschwindigkeitsmessung des

basiert auf der Erkennung

des vom Flügelrad erzeugten, drehenden Magnetfelds.

Falls das Geräts in der Nähe eines von einem

Transformator oder Motor erzeugten starken

Magnetfelds befi ndet, zeigt das Gerät möglicherweise

unerwünschte Werte an, obwohl das Flügelrad sich

nicht dreht.

Garantía
Su instrumento está garantizado por JDC

ELECTRONIC SA durante un año a partir de la fecha

de compra contra cualquier defecto material o de

fabricación. Quedan excluidos de esta garantía los

daños causados por un uso inadecuado.

El principio de la medición de la velocidad del

se basa en la detección del

campo magnético giratorio producido por la hélice. Si

el aparato está en presencia de un campo magnético

fuerte producido por un transformador o un motor,

puede que el instrumento indique valores no deseados

en ausencia de rotación de la hélice.

Garanzia
Il vostro strumento è garantito da JDC ELECTRONIC

SA per un anno dalla data di acquisto contro ogni

difetto materiale o di fabbricazione. Sono esclusi

da questa garanzia i danni causati da un utilizzo

improprio.

Il principio di misura della velocità del

si bas a sulla rilevazione del campo

magnetico ruotante prodotto dall’elica. Se

l’apparecchio è in presenza di un forte campo

magnetico prodotto da un trasformatore o un motore,

è probabile che lo strumento indichi valori non

desiderati, in assenza di rotazione dell’elica.

Mesure de la température (affi chage du bas)
Température instantanée

Important : l’inertie thermique de l’appareil agit

directement sur le temps de stabilisation de la mesure.

Plus la différence de température est importante, plus

ce temps sera long. Ce dernier est d’autant plus court

que la vitesse du vent est élevée.

Température ressentie

Comme vous le savez certainement, les basses

températures sont dangereuses pour le corps humain.

Mais saviez-vous que le vent infl uence fortement les

températures ressenties réellement par votre corps ?

Par exemple, une température ambiante de 0°C et un

vent de 30 km/h agissent comme une température de

-13°C ! Le résultat du calcul de l’effet du vent sur la

température s’appelle «température ressentie». A la

mer, en montagne, en randonnée ou à vélo, le

vous donne instantanément la

température ressentie par votre corps et vous prévient

des engelures et de l’hypothermie.

Température minimum, température maximum

Dans ces deux modes, il s’agit de la valeur minimale

ou maximale mesurée sur le temps de la moyenne.

La valeur est mise à zéro lors d’un RESET de la

mémoire.

Point de rosée

Le point de rosée (°F et °C ) est calculé en tenant

compte du taux d’humidité et de la température

ambiante. Il indique la température à laquelle l’air ne

peut plus absorber d’humidité (formations de nuages,

de brouillard, de rosée, de condensation sur les

objets, etc.).

Exemple: À une température ambiante de 23°C et un

taux d’humidité de 39.5%rH, le point de rosée se situe

à 12°C.
Mesure de l’humidité (affi chage du milieu)
Humidité instantanée

L’humidité ambiante dépend de la température. En

déplaçant l’appareil d’un endroit chaud à un endroit

froid, les valeurs mesurées seront différentes. Dans

l’atmosphère, l’humidité n’est pas homogène, ainsi

deux endroits proches l’un de l’autre peuvent donner

des résultats différents. La transpiration et/ou la

respiration d’une personne très proche de l’appareil

peuvent infl uencer la mesure.

Humidité minimum, humidité maximum

Dans ces deux modes, il s’agit de la valeur minimale

ou maximale mesurée sur le temps de la moyenne.

La valeur est mise à zéro lors d’un RESET de la

mémoire.

Temperature measurement (bottom display)
Instantaneous temperature

Important: Thermal inertia of the instrument directly

affects the stabilisation time of the measurement. The

greater the temperature difference is the longer this

time will be. This time will be shorter if the wind speed

is higher.

Wind-chill temperature

As you know, exposure to low temperatures is

potentially dangerous to the human body. But did you

know that wind plays a signifi cant part in how your body

actually feels temperatures? For example, an ambient

temperature of 0°C and a 30 km/h wind have the

same effect on you as a temperature of -13°C! The

result of the calculation of the effect of wind on the

temperature is called the “wind-chill temperature”. By

the sea, in the mountains, hiking or cycling, the

shows immediately the

temperature felt by the body and warns of risks of

chilblains and hypothermia.

Min and max temperature

These two modes show the min or max values

measured over time of the average. The value is reset

to zero during a RESET of the memory.

Dew point

The dew point (°F and °C ) is calculated taking into

account the humidity and the ambient temperature.

It gives the temperature at which the water vapour

contained in the air has reached saturation point

(formation of clouds, fog, dew, condensation on

objects, etc.).

Example: At an ambient temperature of 23°C and a

humidity of 39.5% rH, the dew point is 12°C.
Humidity measurement (middle display)
Instantaneous humidity

Ambient humidity depends on the temperature. When

moving the instrument from a warm environment to a

cold environment, the values measured will vary. In the

atmosphere, humidity is not uniform, and two locations

that are close to each other may give different results.

A person perspiring and/or breathing very near the

instrument may impact on the measurement.

Minimum humidity, maximum humidity

These two modes show the min or max values

measured over time of the average. The value is reset

to zero during a RESET of the memory.

You have just acquired a piece of high precision

equipment which has been created using the most

modern technology. It has been designed to stand

up to intensive use. However, in order to maintain its

appearance and its precision, we recommend that

you treat it with care and read this manual carefully.

Confi guration
To access the confi guration mode of your instrument,

just press on the button. Pressing the button once

again cause the system to confi rm the setting if there

has been a change. If not then it goes to the next

setting. To modify the settings the and buttons

have to be used. Here is how to proceed with the

different instrument settings.

Wind measuring unit

The units to be selected are: mph, knots, km/h, m/s,

fps and Beaufort. Once the unit is chosen, it remains

displayed in the top right. If no unit is displayed the

instrument is set to Beaufort.

Temperature measurement unit

The units to be selected are: °F, °C, °F , °C , °F

and °C .

Humidity measurement unit

Humidity is displayed in a single unit: %rH.

Setting the time of the average

The times to be selected are: --- (weighting), 3’’, 6’’, 12’’,

30’’, 1’, 6’, 30’, 1:00’, 6:00’, 12:00’, 24:00’ or timer .

The Timer mode is used to measure the average,

min. and max. over a defi ned period of time between

a start (press ) and stop (press ). This time is

displayed on the bottom line. This timer allows the

use of the LapTime function (press , the symbol

fl ashes). The button also allows the timer to be reset

to zero. This works in the same way as a standard

chronometer.

Setting the display of wind, temperature and

humidity.

The displays to be selected are: ---, MIN, AV, MAX.

When MIN is selected, only the temperature and

humidity are concerned, the wind continues to display

the instantaneous value (---).

When the selected unit is °F or °C , the display

setting is limited to --- or MIN.
Wind measurement (upper display)
Important: the protective cap has to be removed

from the instrument in order to rotate the impeller.

The impeller has a maximum sensitivity in the

vertical position (due to its magnetic levitation), and

an optimised precision when its axis of rotation is

perpendicular to the wind direction.
The average or maximum wind speed is calculated

based on the time of the average. These values are

reset to zero during a RESET of the memory.
