Set Up the Power, Installation & Make Settings for the Anemometer (Wind Gauge) and
Wireless Remote Sensor
Installation/Mounting-- the first step is to select the location for the Anemometer that is outdoor and
not blocked on the top or sides so wind can freely reach it. The distance can be from 328ft (100m) to
the Receiver or closer in an open area (the closer the better for transmission reception). The best
location is usually on a mast on a roof or other high open position. The Wireless Sensor is built into
the Anemometer.
Before mounting the Anemometer it is best to perform a transmission test where you install the
batteries (new ones) in the Anemometer (see section below) to make sure all is ok and save a lot of
time if you have to relocate the Anemometer.
Place the Anemometer horizontally in your selected outdoor location and install the batteries. Press
and hold the "CHANNEL/SEARCH" button for a few seconds and you will see wind direction,
temperature, and humidity icons flash on the display as the Receiver is now searching for remote
sensors. If the readings for the outdoor information are shown within ten minutes, the transmission is
successful and you can go ahead with the mounting. If the readings are not shown after ten minutes,
then relocate the place you want to mount the Anemometer closer to the Receiver and remove the
batteries and try the procedure again. Remove the batteries from the Anemometer prior to mounting
and calibration.
Remove the four small screws (shown in above image) from the door of the Anemometer with a small
screwdriver. Insert two AA batteries (user supplied) as indicated in the sensor (see right image
above). Replace the door of the Anemometer by installing the four small screws to hold it in place.
To mount the Anemometer, you need a mast (user supplied) about 1 to 1.25" (2.54 to 3.1cm) in
diameter and hardware to mount permanently in the location where you want to mount the
Anemometer – see drawing below. Note that if you have an existing mast for mounting an antenna or
similar device, you can mount the Anemometer on it. You should mount and ground a mast as
directed in the instructions provided with the mast. If you do not have a mast, you can purchase them
at aerial or antenna suppliers.
Place the U-shaped metal plates around the mast. Insert the four hex screws through the holes of the
U-shaped plates and the holes on the Anemometer mounting bracket. The wind vane is to be above
the metal bar of the Anemometer when it is in the horizontal position per the diagram below. Tighten
the hex nut onto the hex screws.
