Check for debris or ice preventing cups from moving.

•

Check mounting location. Look for obstructions that prevent the wind from reaching the

sensor.

•

In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 4-6ft above the highest point on the roof in

order to clear nearby obstructions and read accurately.

•

A 50-foot clearance in all directions is best.

•

Push down firmly on the center of the cups to reseat them.

•

Cups are replaceable.

Occasionally, a bad storm with hail or debris that will damage your wind cups. These are easily

replaced.

Replace wind cups:

1. Loosen the screw on side of cups

2. Remove cups

3. Install new cups

4. Tighten screw

Note: The screw in the wind cups will fit on the flat side of the metal stem on the sensor.

for the sensor. If this occurs try moving your station a few feet or turning the station 90

degrees for a better angle to receive the sensor signal.

•

When you have good batteries, and good location, press and release the SENSOR button

until you see your sensor ID. Hold the PLUS (+) button for 3 seconds and your station will

search for your individual sensor.
