SETUP
Sensor Setup
1
Set the A-B-C Switch
The A-B-C switch is located inside
•
the battery compartment. It can
be set to A, B or C. However,
you must select the same
letter choices for the wireless
sensor, rain gauge and the
display in order for the units to
synchronize.
2
Install or Replace Batteries
AcuRite recommends high quality
•
alkaline or lithium batteries in
the wireless sensor for the best
product performance. Heavy
duty or rechargeable batteries
are not recommended.
The sensor requires lithium
batteries in low temperature
conditions. Cold temperatures
can cause alkaline batteries
to function improperly. Use
lithium batteries in the sensor for
temperatures below -4ºF / -20ºC.
1. Slide off the battery
compartment cover. Take
note of the A-B-C switch
setting inside the battery
compartment for display
setup.
2. Insert 2 x AA batteries into
the battery compartment, as
shown. Follow the polarity
(+/-) diagram in the battery
compartment.
3. Replace the battery cover.
