Getting Started SET UP Base Station | Oregon Scientific WMR200A

To set up the Rain Gauge:

1	2

1.Remove screws and slide the cover off in an upwards motion.

2.Insert the batteries (2 x UM-3 / AA), matching the polarities (+ / -). Press RESET after each battery change.

Install the base station batteries (4 x UM-3 / AA) matching the polarity (+ / -). Press RESET after each battery change.

NOTE Do not use rechargeable batteries. It is recommended that you use alkaline batteries with this product for longer performance.

3. Remove the ﬁbre tape.

To ensure a level plane:

Put a few drops of water on the cross at the base of the funnel to check the horizontal level.

3 2

Water will pool to the center of the cross when the rain gauge is level.

If water remains on 1-4, the gauge is not horizontal.

If necessary, adjust the level using the screw.

NOTE For best results, ensure the base is horizontal to allow maximum drainage of any collected rain.
