All digital rain gauges are self-emptying or self-dumping (also referred
to as tipping rain gauge). The precision of the rain gauge is based on the
volume of rain per emptying cycle.
Range is defined as the amount or extent a value can be measured.
Measured barometric pressure relative to your location or ambient
conditions.
Resolution is defined as the number of significant digits (decimal
places) to which a value is being reliably measured.
A solar radiation sensor measures solar energy from the sun.
Solar radiation is radiant energy emitted by the sun from a nuclear
fusion reaction that creates electromagnetic energy. The spectrum of
solar radiation is close to that of a black body with a temperature of
about 5800 K. About half of the radiation is in the visible short-wave
part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The other half is mostly in the
near-infrared part, with some in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum.
A thermometer is a device that measures temperature. Most digital
thermometers are resistive thermal devices (RTD). RTDs predict change
in temperature as a function of electrical resistance.
A wind vane is a device that measures the direction of the wind. The
wind vane is usually combined with the anemometer. Wind direction is
the direction from which the wind is blowing.
Solution
The maximum line of sight communication range is about 300'. Move the
sensor assembly closer to the OBSERVERIP2.0 receiver.
Install a fresh set of batteries in the remote sensor(s).
