3. Align the red markings on the wind vane's shaft.
4. With the aid of a compass, face the red marking south
before mounting the anemometer.
5. Mount the anemometer and its solar transmitter safely
in place.
The wind speed and direction window on the main unit
should read 180˚ if the main unit is installed.
THE THERMO-HYGROMETER
The thermo-hygrometer measures outdoor temperature
and humidity.
To install it:
Mount the thermo-hygrometer and its solar transmitter
safely in place.
THE RAIN GAUGE
The rain gauge measures the total amount and rate of rainfall.
To install it:
1. Open the cover of the rain collector.
2. Remove the fiber tape from around the bucket assemblies.
3. Mount the rain gauge and its solar transmitter safely in place.
4. Put drops of water on the cross at the base on the rain
collector to check the leveling.

Water
at position 1 - 4
means the gauge
is not leveled
5. Use metal ring to adjust the leveling of the rain collector
if necessary.
6. Close the cover of the rain collector.
THE SOLAR TRANSMITTERS
The solar transmitters make use of solar energy to power
the instruments they are connected to.
NOTE It is recommended to insert two UM3 or "AA"-sized
super lithium batteries for weather condition under 0 ˚C (32 ˚F).
Standard Alkaline batteries contain significant amounts of
water. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures
of approximately 10˚F (-12˚C). Disposable Lithium batteries
have a much lower threshold for temperature with an
estimated freezing range of below -40˚F (-40˚C). The
Liquid Crystal Display in outdoor thermometers will remain
operational to -20˚F (-28˚C) with adequate power.
Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors such
as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may temporarily
reduce the effective range between the sensor and the base
station. If the unit's performance fails due to low temperature,
the unit will resume proper functioning as the temperature
rises to within the normal temperature range (i.e no permanent
damage will occur to the unit due to low temperatures).
For the solar transmitters to function properly, make sure
the solar receptors on the transmitters are exposed to
sunlight and the connectors of the connection cable are
securely plugged in.
THE BARO-THERMO-HYGROMETER
The baro-thermo-hygrometer measures the atmospheric
pressure, temperature and humidity.
The sensor uses four UM4 or "AAA"-sized batteries.
To install it,
1. Insert alkaline batteries accordingly.
