Wireless Weather Station
Model: PSG04174
Safety
Do not expose the main unit to rain or moisture
Use only recommended batteries
Remove the batteries if the weather station is not to be used for a
long time. Old batteries can begin to leak and damage the product.
Remember to insert the batteries according to the markings in the
battery compartment. The wrong polarity (+/-) can damage the
weather station.
Damage that has occurred by careless handling is not covered by
the warranty.

  • Page 5 1. Install U-bolts and metal plate Installation of the U-bolts, which are used to mount the sensor package on a pole, requires installation of an included metal plate to receive the U-bolt ends. The metal plate, visible in Figure 3 has four holes through which the ends of the two U-Bolts will fit.
  • Page 6 cups installed to install these bolts is more difficult and more likely to lead to damage. 2. Install wind speed cups Push the wind speed cup assembly onto the shaft on the top side of the sensor package, as shown in Figure 5 on the left side. Tighten the set screw, with a Philips screwdriver (size PH0), as shown on the right side.

The LED indicator on the back of the sensor package will turn on for four seconds and then flash once every 48 seconds indicating sensor data transmission (the sensor transmission update period).
  • Page 8 Note: If 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 with incorrect polarity 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 9 Note Beside the antenna, there is an arrow icon with an ident labelled ”WEST” (Figure 9) representing the direction of west. The sensor body has to be adjusted so that the “WEST” indication is facing to real west direction for your location. A compass device is recommended to help adjust direction.

Best Practices for Wireless Communication Note: To insure proper communication, mount the remote sensor(s) upright on a vertical surface, such as a wall. Do not lay the sensor flat. Wireless communication is susceptible to interference, distance, walls and metal barriers.
  • Page 11 The following is a table of reception loss vs. the transmission medium. Each “wall” or obstruction decreases the transmission range by the factor shown below. Medium RF Signal Strength Reduction Glass (untreated) 5-15% Plastics 10-15% Wood 10-40% Brick 10-40% Concrete 40-80% Metal 90-100%...

    Note for RCC signal: The best condition for reception is at night, between midnight and 6:00am – when there is less atmospheric interference. Note: If a battery change on the transmitter alone is made, the receiver will be resynchronized to the transmitter again within the next 3 hours. If you want to shorten the receiving data time, the base station also has to re-install the battery so that it can have the new security code learnt right way, but the previous weather data and alarm value settings in...

  • Page 15 Temperature Calibration Temperature errors can occur when a sensor is placed too close to a heat source (such as a building structure, the ground and when placed in direct sunlight without proper shielding in hot weather environments). To calibrate temperature, we recommend a mercury or red spirit (fluid) thermometer.
  • Page 16 may not be accurate. Place the tube type rain gauge directly next to the rain collector. Compare the totals on three storms. Based on this, develop an average for how far off the readings are. Do not compare rainfall readings to reading obtained from television, radio, newspapers, or neighbors’...

  • Page 21 Remark: Where outdoor temperature is lower than -20˚C, make sure proper type of batteries to be used to assure that the device can get enough power to maintain its function properly. Normal alkaline batteries is not allow to be used since when outdoor temperature is lower than -20 ˚C, the battery’s discharging capability is greatly reduced.
