Mounting - La Crosse Technology WS-2317 Operation Manual

NOTE: For reception of WWVB time/date signal, do not mount
the base station closer than 5 feet from a computer, florescent
lights or other electrical appliances. Do not mount the base
station on a wall that has metal heat/AC ductwork in the wall
behind the base station. For best WWVB reception place the
base station near a window facing Colorado. WWVB
reception will be obtained easiest in the nighttime hours when
the WWVB signal is strongest.
Mounting the Wind Sensor onto a mast

Wind-fan
Firstly, check that the wind-fan and the wind-vane can rotate
freely before fixing the unit. For correct and accurate readings
it is important to mount the sensor so that the front (marked E)
is pointing in East-West direction. The wind sensor should
now be mounted using the screw provided onto a mast to
allow the wind to travel around the sensor unhindered from all
directions (ideal mast size should be from Ø0.63" – Ø1.3").
Once the wind sensor is fixed onto the mast, connect the
cable to the corresponding thermo-hygro sensor socket so
that operating power supply can be received and data can be
transmitted to the base station.
