La Crosse Technology WS-7038U instruction manual Mounting, I THE TX5U-RAINFALL TRANSMITTER

MOUNTING

Note: Before permanently mounting, ensure that the Rain Monitor is able to receive signals from the Rainfall Transmitter at their desired location. Obstacles such as walls, concrete, and large metal objects can reduce the range. Place units in their desired location, and wait approximately 15 minutes before permanently mounting to ensure that there is proper reception

I)THE TX5U—RAINFALL TRANSMITTER

The Rainfall Transmitter can be mounted in two ways:

•simply placing it in a desired location, or

•mounting it to a surface with the provided screws.

Ensure that the Rainfall Transmitter is completely horizontal and stable.

1)Rotate the rainfall collector separating it from the base.

2)There are two cylindrical

holes in the base to guide the mounting screws. Place the base over a desired mounting surface. With a pencil, mark the mounting surface through the cylindrical holes.

3)Where marked, start the screws.

4)Place the base over mounting surface. Install screws through the cylindrical holes and into the started holes on the mounting surface.

5)Secure the screws, ensuring that no part of the base can lift off the mounting surface.

6)Remove the manufacture tape from the teeter-totter on the base. If this is not done there will be no way to measure rainfall, and no measurement will display on the Weather Center.

7)Place the rainfall collector onto the base. Place the 3 tabs (on the rainfall collector) into the tab slots (on the base) and turn counter-clockwise.
