INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR DATA RECORDER SOFTWARE (WS-8610)
Introduction
This weather station together with the Data Recorder software is a high quality, easy to use data-logging system.
After installing the program on this CD-ROM to your PC, you will get all the soft copy of the stored data in all preset outdoor channels and the indoor
channel. To operate the system, simply use the PC cable supplied and connect the weather station to your PC using the desired COM.
PC System Requirements
To install the Data Recorder software onto your PC, the minimum requirements are as follows:
• Operating system: Windows 98 or later version
• Processor: Pentium 166 MHz or above
• CD-ROM Drive
• Microsoft Excel 5.0 95 or later version
Installation of the Data Recorder Software
First check to ensure the indoor weather station and the remote temperature/humidity sensors are functioning normally.
Be sure to replace batteries of the indoor weather station when the battery low indicator is displayed at the LCD. Failure to do so may result in errors in
the operation of the indoor weather station and Data Recorder software.
Note:
• After changing the batteries in the indoor weather station there is no need to reset the indoor weather station. In fact, the indoor weather station can
remember all remote temperature/humidity sensor information and sequence as per the pervious set-up. It may be required to reset the desired
LCD contrast, Alarm On/Off condition
and the Clock (by re-entering the date and time manually or simply wait for the WWVB time signal).
If the battery of a remote temperature/humidity sensor is drained you must re-learning that particular remote temperature/humidity sensor after
replacing the batteries.
(See “LEARNING/ REMOVING A REMOTE TEMPERATURE/HUMDITY SENSOR (CHANNEL)” in the main user manual for the procedures of re-
learning a remote temperature/humidity sensor (channel).)
