GETTING STARTED

NOTE Install batteries in the remote sensors before the

base station matching the polarities (+ and -).

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

SET UP REMOTE WIND SENSOR

The wind sensor takes wind speed and direction readings.

The sensor is battery operated. It is capable of transmitting data to the base station wirelessly within an approximate operating range of 100 meters (328 feet).

To insert batteries:

1. Unscrew the anemometer from the wind sensor carefully.

2. Insert batteries matching the polarities (+ / -) and replace the anemometer. Press

RESET after each

battery change.

SET UP REMOTE TEMPERATURE / HUMIDITY SENSOR

The remote sensor can collect data from up to 3 channels.

To set up the remote sensor:

1. Slide open the battery door.

2. Slid e channe l switch to sel ect a chann el (1, 2,

3). Ensure you use a different channel for each sensor.

3. Insert the batteries, matching the polarities (+ / -).

4. Press

RESET after each battery change.

5. Close the battery door.

SET UP RAIN GAUGE

The rain gauge collects rain and takes rainfall readings. The sensor can remotely transmit data to the base station.

To set up the rain gauge:

1. Remove screws and slide the cover off in an upwards motion.

2. Insert the batteries (2 x UM-3 / AA), matching the polarities (+ / -). Press RESET after each battery change.

3. Remove the ﬁbre tape.

SET UP BASE STATION

NOTE Install batteries in the remote sensors before the

base station matching the polarities (+ and -).
