When the signal from the transmitter/ or Rain sensor (optional) is successfully received by the Weather Station, the icon will be switched on. (If not successful, the icon will not be shown on the LCD). User can therefore easily see whether the last reception was successful (“ON” icon) or not (“OFF” icon). On the other hand, the short blinking of the icon shows that a reception is being done at that time.

MOUNTING THE UNITS:

Using 915MHz wireless transmission gives users little restriction on placement because all units can be positioned virtually anywhere within a 330 ft / 100 meters radius of the base station. Please ensure that the cable included in this set meets your distance requirements (see accessories in the main user manual for adding extension cables).

Important: Ensure all signals can be received and/or all cable distances meet with your requirements at the point of fixing particularly before you start drilling any mounting holes.

Wind sensor

Secure the main unit to the shaft of the mast holder using the single screw provided with the front of the sensor (marked E) facing in the East-West direction otherwise wind direction will not be accurate. Now fix the entire unit to a suitable mast using the U-bolt, washers and nuts found in this set.

Note: For best results mount the wind sensor onto a mast to allow the wind to freely travel from all directions to enable an accurate reading (ideal mast size should be from Ø 5/8” to 11/4”). Ensure that the cable of the wind sensor meets your distance requirements

Thermo-hygro Sensor

To wall mount the thermo-hygro sensor, fix the wall holder onto the desired wall (2 screws are supplied), plug the sensor firmly into the wall holder and then carefully replace the rain cover back over the thermo-hygro sensor.

Dew point icon

Wind gust icon

Rainfall icon

In Mode 2, this reception icon is showing the condition of the reception of the signal from Rain sensor (only if a rain sensor is being used)

Note: After mounting the units, should the weather data not be received, user may need to remove the batteries from all units and redo the set-up procedures after about 5 minutes.

Rain sensor (optional)

The rain sensor should be mounted horizontally about 2-3ft off from the ground (or higher) in an open area away from trees or other coverings to allow rain to fall naturally for an accurate reading.

Note: For best results ensure the base is horizontal to allow maximum drainage of any collected rain
