Possible Solution
Relocate the main unit and/or the wireless
rain collector closer together. Both units must
be within 100 feet from each other. Make sure
both units are placed at least 3 feet from other
electronic appliances and devices that may
interfere with the wireless communication
(such as TV's, microwaves, computers etc.).
NOTE: It may take up to 20 minutes for the
main unit to re-synchronize with the sensor
when batteries are replaced.
If you suspect the rainfall measurement is
not accurate, make certain the rain collector
batteries are fresh.
Check that the collector is mounted to a
level surface and that no foreign debris or
plant matter is preventing the flow of rainfall
into the collector. See "Care Instructions."
Make certain that the internal tipping bucket
is allowed to move freely and is not obstructed
by any foreign objects or debris.
If wireless reception is bad (no bars), see
"Bad Reception" section above. The wireless
ID setting on each unit must match for both
units to communicate properly. See "Set
Wireless ID" on the next page.
Make certain that the batteries are installed
correctly. The batteries may need replacing.

This wireless rain gauge
uses long range 433mhz

communication.
In the event that you have
reception problems due to
interference, both the main

collector have a selectable
wireless ID. The ID switches
are located within the
battery compartments of
the main unit and the
wireless rain collector.
You may choose A, B or C;
but both the main units' and
the wireless rain collectors'
IDs must match for
successful synchronization.
