SET UP RAIN GAUGE
The rain gauge collects rain and takes readings of rainfall rate and the total rainfall over a period of time. The sensor can remotely transmit data to the base station.
The base station and rain gauge should be positioned within an effective range: about 100 meters (328 feet) in an open area.
The rain gauge should be mounted horizontally about 1 meter (3 feet) from the ground in an open area away from trees or other obstructions to allow rain to fall naturally for an accurate reading.
Water will pool to the center of the cross when the rain gauge is level.
If water remains on
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.
