Items included in this package:
1. Home Receiver Unit (an indoor unit which displays temperature and
other readings)
2. Remote Wind Gauge Sensor (an outdoor sensor unit which
transmits wind, temperature & humidity data to the receiver unit)
3. Mounting hardware for the Wind Gauge Sensor (2 “U”-shaped

Assembling the Wind Gauge Sensor
The Wind Gauge Sensor ships in 2 pieces: the base unit and the
compass/wind direction pointer. To attach the compass/pointer to the
base unit, you will need a small Phillips screwdriver (not included).
1. On the back side of the compass, there is a hollow area that will fit
onto the wind sensor base unit. Align the hole in the center of the
hollow area with the metal prong on the base unit. Push gently on
the compass/pointer until it is all the way on the prong.
2. There is a screw hole on the side of the compass/wind vane. Place
the included screw into the hole and tighten. This will secure the
compass/wind vane to the base unit.
