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.
 Check that the wind cups attach to the sensor. Occasionally they can come off.
 Check that the cups seat properly by pushing on the center of the cups.
 Check that the cups spin freely.
 Check the unit of measure (MPH, KM/H or M/S).
 Check to see if the Professional weather station receives the same repetitive
wind speed recording from the sensor multiple times.
 Confirm the direction is working correctly.
 Check that the cups turn freely.
 Check for obstructions that prevent clear wind flow to the cups.
 Check mounting. In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 6 feet or more
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.
 It is helpful to send pictures of the sensor mounting, if you need to contact
customer support.
 Check that your batteries are fresh in the thermo-hygro sensor and the
Professional weather station.
