Radio controlled time signal can be received at the point of
mounting
NOTE: The WWVB receiver is located in the base station.
Base Station
With two foldable legs at the back of the unit, the base station can be
placed onto any flat surface or wall mounted at the desired location
by the hanging holes also at the back of the unit. It is important to
check that the 433MHz (if using wireless connection) and the WWVB
radio controlled time signal can be received before permanently
mounting any of the units. Should the base station not display the
433MHz weather data from the sensors or the radio controlled time
from the desired location, then relocate the units. Once the signals
are received, the system can be affixed. Also if you have selected to
use cable connection, ensure that distances can reach all desired
locations before affixing any unit permanently
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-vane
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
