Notes:

two screws (if you plan to mount the monitor on a wall)

mast, 1–11/4inches (2.54–3.18 cm) in diameter (to mount the anemometer)

batteries (not supplied): monitor: 4 AA

Indoor thermo/hygro/baro sensor: 4 AAA backup power for

solar transmitters (3): 2 AA (each)

For the best performance and longest life, we recommend RadioShack alka- line batteries.

We recommend that you use lithium bat- teries in any component that could be exposed to temperatures between –4° and –58°F (–20° and –50°C) or colder.

UNDERSTANDING THE MONITOR AND ITS DISPLAY

The weather station’s monitor is divided into various windows: barometric pressure and current outdoor general condition, barometric bar chart, indoor temperature, outdoor temperature, rain- fall, clock, and wind speed and wind direction. Each window displays related information for that item.

The monitor lights for about 12 seconds and a tone sounds each time you press the screen.

The following chart describes each icon or control.
