LED Indicator: light will turn on for 4s when the unit is powered up. Then the LED will flash once every 48 seconds (the sensor transmission update period). - Page 4 Figure 4: U-Bolts and nuts installed The plate and U-Bolts are not yet needed at this stage but doing this now may help avoid damaging the wind vane and the wind speed cups later on. Handling of the sensor package with wind vane and speed cups installed to install these bolts is more difficult and more likely to lead to damage.
- Page 5 can rotate freely. The wind vane’s movement has a small amount of friction, which is helpful in providing steady wind direction measurements. Figure 6: Wind vane installation diagram 3.4 Install Batteries Open the battery compartment with a screwdriver and insert 2 AA batteries in the battery compartment.
- Page 6 Note: f LED does not light up or is on permanently, make sure the battery is inserted the correct way and inserted fully, starting over if necessary. Do not install the batteries backwards as it may permanently damage the outdoor sensor. Note: We recommend Lithium batteries for cold weather climates, but alkaline batteries are sufficient for most climates.
- Page 7 direction error will be introduced when the outdoor sensor is not installed in right direction. Figure 9 Now look at the bubble level. The bubble should be fully inside the red circle. If it is not, wind direction, speed, and rain readings may not operate correctly or accurately.

Page 9: Maintenance
Maintenance 1. Clean the rain gauge once every 3 months. Rotate the funnel counter-clockwise and lift to expose the rain gauge mechanism, and clean with a damp cloth. Remove any dirt, debris and insects. If bug infestation is an issue, spray the array lightly with insecticide. Clean the solar panel every 3 months with damp cloth. -

Questions and answers
Rain gauge is clean but not recording rainfall everything else working
If the TESA WS14CN rain gauge is clean but not recording rainfall, possible reasons may include:
1. Battery issues: Batteries may be depleted or corroded. Replace them and apply corrosion preventive compound.
2. Transmission problem: Ensure the sensor is within the 100m (300 feet) transmission range and operating at 433MHz.
3. Mechanical blockage: Even if clean, internal parts of the rain gauge mechanism may be stuck or misaligned.
4. Insect or debris interference: Recheck for small debris or insects that may obstruct the mechanism.
5. Environmental factors: Extreme weather may affect functionality; inspect for damage or freezing.
Check all these areas to troubleshoot the issue.
