Make sure you fit a rubber grommet to the cables once they exit the cross member so that it can be fitted into the pole. Fit the cross member using the galvanised T Clamps provided. You should now be ready to wire the cable into the DN200. DN200 Weatherstation Installation Manual Revision B Page 4...

Commissioning: Replace the fuses. Turn on the DN200 in the following manner. Switch the power slider to ON (down) then press and hold the Start button for about 2 seconds. Monitor the light activity. You should see a series of flashes then lights will generally remain constant for 1 minute.
DN200 Status LEDs The status LEDs on the DN200 fall into two categories, ones that are always active and ones that are only active on-demand. Always active LEDs always reflect the relevant system status. On-demand status LEDs will only reflect the relevant system status at startup or when the START/CHECK button has been pressed.
