IV) COMPLETE RESETTING OF PRECIPITATION DATA

Note: The rain data held by the bar chart and other rain totals (excluding the

1-hour total) will be stored and displayed again, even after the batteries have been removed. Therefore it is necessary to apply the following instructions to reset the bar chart and other totals, if desired.

1)Enter the Rain Multiplicator mode as instructed in steps 1 through 3 of the Manual Reset of the Rain Multiplicator section above.

2)After setting the rain multiplicator, while the left digit is flashing, press the RAIN/SET button for 8 seconds. This will clear data, and reset it to 0.

V)RECEPTION REQUIRMENTS

The Rain Monitor receives data from the Rainfall Transmitter every 5 minutes, while the Rainfall Transmitter transmits data every 1 minute. Data is transmitted immediately after rain has been detected. If 3 transmission attempts are made and no data is received, “---” will be displayed in the LCD. If this is the case, reset the Rain Monitor.

A)RESETTING

1)Remove batteries from the Rain Monitor and Rain Gauge.

2)Wait 30 seconds, or start-up and transmission problems may arise, then reinstall the batteries.

3)Follow Programming instruction.

The Rain Monitor cannot receive data in the Programming Mode, nor during the numeric display of the bar chart. Reception is also interupted when a button is pressed, and will continue when the button is released.

The transmission range is approximately 80 feet (25m) in open space. The surrounding environment and interference levels influence this transmission range.

VI) ICONS

A)FLASHING RAIN CLOUD

A flashing rain cloud appears in the upper right hand corner of the LCD screen, when the Rainfall Transmitter is accumulating rain and transmitting data.

B)SATELLITE ICON

The satellite icon appears above the right column of the bar graph, when the Rain Monitor is searching for a signal from the Rainfall Transmitter.
