Adressing The Radio Sensors - La Crosse Technology WS-2010 Software Manual

Fill the recess with a little water and then align the lower part of the housing
according to the spirit level principle. After marking the installation position ex-
actly, drain off the water. Ensure the solar cell faces south. The short side of the
integrated spirit level must point north.
To enable good transmission (wide range), it is better not to set the rainfall trans-
mitter directly on the ground. Installing it approx. 3,3 ft above ground level pro-
duces the best results and protects the system from dirt (especially the solar
cells).
After screwing the lower section to the base, replace the upper section as fol-
lows:
In the middle of the counter rocker for rainfall on the lower section at the side is
a bar magnet which triggers the electronic counting pulses.
The upper section of the housing must be mounted so that the solar cell is also
on the same side as magnet, meaning that the electronics part is directly oppo-
site and the three retaining latches fit exactly in the locks on the lower section.
Then turn the upper section counterclockwise a little until it snaps into the locks
in the lower section and remove tape that secures rocher.
The rainfall sensor is then ready for operation. As a test, pour a little water in the
funnel very slowly. The recorded amount is later converted and displayed on the
PC interface in inches, liter/m
Addressing the radio sensors
The outdoor sensor concept enables the use of up to 8 sensors simultaneously
whose data appears at the top right of the display in the area for outdoor values.
Each sensor in the system must be assigned an address which enables the receiver
to integrate the data within the complete system without any interference. At the
factory, each radio sensor outdoor radio sensor with solar cell is defined as Sensor 1
and the other sensor types as Sensor 2. The programmable assignment is illustrated

The addressing can be
performed by the user by
setting the jumpers on the
component side of the sensor
board. First of all, unscrew the
protective cover from the
sensor housing and then
open the housing sensor
housing by removing the
screws on the rear side. In
the case of the other sensor
types, only the rear panel
needs to be removed.
Then set the jumpers
according to the addressing
table.
