5-in-1 Installation Guidelines
INSTALLATION HEIGHT Mount the sensor at a minimum height of 5 feet (1.5
meters) off the ground, in an open area. Higher is better for wind
measurements- the National Weather Service recommends 33 feet (10 meters)
high!
Mounting Options The included mounting bracket is designed to screw directly
onto wooden posts or surfaces that are 2"x4" or larger. The sensor can also
be mounted directly to 3/4" steel or PVC pipe (available at hardware stores
and home centers).
SOLAR CELL ORIENTATION Install the sensor with the solar cell facing SOUTH. This
ensures the cell receives as much sun as possible, and orients wind direction.
5-in-1 Sensor Installation
1. Fasten mounting base (included)
to a post or pole (not included)
using the 4 longer screws
included in the hardware bag.
2. Insert the mounting base into the
hole on the bottom of the sensor.
3. Make sure the arrows on the top
of the sensor are pointed in the
proper direction and the bubble
level is centered. The solar cell
should be facing south to
properly orient the wind
direction vane.
3. Fasten the sensor into the
mounting base using the 2
shorter screws included in the
hardware bag.
The 5-in-1 sensor is now
ready to use.
Clear Data Collected During Installation
When installation is complete, clear erroneous data from the display unit by
pressing the "CLEAR TODAY" button, on the back of the display unit inside the
battery compartment. This button will clear data recorded since 12:00am.
Basic Setup is Complete
The 5-in-1 sensor will now synchronize with the display unit. It may take a few
minutes for synchronization to complete. If both or one of the units appear to
be functioning improperly, please refer to the troubleshooting section.
