WHY ARE MY WIND CUPS NOT SPINNING?

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.
WIND READING 0.00: WHY DO I ONLY SEE 0.00 FOR WIND
The 0.00 means your wind sensor is connected to your station.
Check that the cups spin freely. Something may be preventing movement.
Are your wind cups unbroken? After a storm it is good to check this.
