SENSORS SENSORS

Sensor Placement & Mounting Cyclone Sensor Mounting

For Accurate Thermo-Hygro Sensor Measurements Basic Installation

• Use the hole at the top to hang your sensor from the back using a nail.

Or, insert one mounting screw through the front of your sensor.

• Mount your sensor on a north-facing wall or in a shaded area. Under

an eave or deck rail is preferred to avoid inaccurate readings from the sun.

• The maximum wireless transmission range to the station is up to 400 feet

(121 meters) in open air, not including walls or ﬂoors.

• Be sure your sensor is mounted vertically, to allow moisture to drain

out properly.

• For online video instruction visit: bit.ly/th_sensor_mounting

Fence posts, poles, decks, and mailboxes are common mounting options due to their convenience. Many users prefer these types of locations as the data they provides is accurate from their ground level. However, because the wind in these spots is often aected by obstructions, the readings may dier when compared to local reporting stations.

For Accurate Cyclone Sensor Measurements

 Use the built-in Bubble Level to ensure the Cyclone Sensor

Mount the Mast to a ﬂat surface with the four

provided screws.

Place the Cyclone Pro Sensor on top of the Mast.

Ensure the Solar Panel is facing south.

(especially the rain gauge) is mounted level.

 Ensure the Solar Panel is facing to the South. This helps

optimize battery life and transmit correct wind direction data.

 Ideally, the Cyclone Sensor should be mounted on the tallest

object in your area. Avoid positioning the sensor parallel or below eaves, roof lines, trees, or other objects that may obstruct wind and rain readings.

Bubble Level

21 22

 Make sure all the screws on the Mounting Bracket, Wind Cups,

Wind Vane, and Battery Compartment are securely fastened.

 The Cyclone Sensor should be mounted with the Wind Cups

on the top. See page 02 for wind cup installation information.

Check the integrated Bubble Level or use your own

across the Rain Funnel to ensure the sensor is level.

Secure the Cyclone Sensor to the Mast by tightening

the screws on the side. After screws are tightened, double check the sensor has remained level through the installation process.

SENSORS

Cyclone Sensor Mounting

Flexible Installation

Hand Screw

Install the Hand Screw to the bracket, then Secure the Cyclone Sensor to the Mast by tightening the screws on the side.

Advanced Installation

Some advanced installation options include tripods, wall mounts, chimney mounts, and many others. Any of these can be combined with U-bolts for attachment onto a tall cylindrical conduit using our Adjustable Base. These options will require additional equipment and possibly professional help for best results.

Freestanding Pole Setup

1'' Maximum Outside Pole Diameter

This conﬁguration allows you to attach the sensor to angled locations and easily make adjustments to ensure the Mast and Sensor are level.

Tripod Setup Example

1'' Maximum Outside Pole Diameter

Cleaning the Rain Sensor

Remove the Rain Funnel by ﬁrmly twisting

the funnel counter-clockwise and lifting up.

After cleaning, re-install the Rain Funnel by

placing it back into the sensor and twisting clockwise until secure.

Tip: Remove the Cyclone Sensor’s batteries before cleaning to avoid accidental rain readings.

Clear any leaves, insects, or other debris to

allow the Rain Tipper to rock freely. Check and clear the Drainage Holes located on the underside of the sensor.

You should feel the funnel lock into place

when one of the arrows lines up with the center of the Lock/Unlock Line.

If you suspect your child has swallowed or inserted a coin cell battery,

immediately seek urgent medical assistance.

Examine devices and make sure the battery compartment is correctly

secured, e.g. that the screw or other mechanical fastener is tightened.

Do not use if compartment is not secure.

Dispose of used coin cell batteries immediately and safely.

Flat batteries can still be dangerous.

Tell others about the risk associated with coin cell batteries and

how to keep their children safe.
