If damaged, the device must not be put into operation.
If an operation without risk may supposedly not be guaranteed, the device must be put
out of operation and be secured against accidental operation.
The device must only be operated as stationary system, i.e. only in a fitted state and
after completion of all installation and start-up works, and only in the environment in-
tended for this purpose.
Carlo Gavazzi does not assume any liability for changes in standards after publication
of this instruction manual.

2.1.1. Installation position

Choose an installation position in the building where wind, rain and sun can be meas-
ured unhindered by the sensors. The weather station must not be installed underneath
any structural parts from which water can still drip onto the rain sensor after it has
stopped raining or snowing. The weather station must not be shaded by anything,
such as building structures or trees. There must be at least 60 cm of free space under-
neath the weather station to allow it to measure the wind correctly and to prevent it
from being snowed in when it snows. The distance also protects the unit against da-
mage by birds.
Please take note that an extended awning does not shade the device from sun and
wind.
Temperature measurements can also be affected by external influences such as by
warming or cooling of the building structure on which the sensor is mounted, (sun-
light, heating or cold water pipes).
Magnetic fields, transmitters and interfering fields from electricity consumers (e.g. flu-
orescent lamps, neon signs, switched-mode power supplies etc.) can interfere with or
even cut out reception of the GPS signal.
