GETTING STARTED

SET UP REMOTE WIND SENSOR

The win d sens or takes wind spe ed and directi on
readings.

The sensor is bat ter y operated. It is cap able of
transmitting data to the base station wirelessly within an
approximate operating range of 100 meters (328 feet).

IMPORTANT Ensure that the wind sensor is pointing
North to enable it to record accurate readings.

NOTE The sensor should be positioned in an open area
away from trees or other obstructions.

To insert batteries:

3. Slide wind vane onto the end of the plastic attachment
located on the aluminium pole.

NOTE Use alkaline batteries for longer usage and
consumer grade lithium batteries in temperatures below
freezing.
