5-in-1 Sensor Installation Guidelines

INSTALLATION HEIGHT Mount the sensor at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) off the ground (higher is better for wind measurement) in an open area. Secure to fence post, 2”x 4” wood, 3/4” pole, etc. (not included)

LEVEL INSTALLATION Use the bubble level on the top of the sensor to ensure level installation for accurate wind and rain measurement.

SOLAR CELL INSTALLATION Install the sensor with the solar cell facing SOUTH. This ensures the cell receives as much sun as possible and orients wind direction.
