5-in-1 Sensor Installation Guidelines
INSTALLATION HEIGHT
(5 feet) off the ground, in an open area. Higher is better for wind
measurements - the National Weather Service recommends 10 meters
(33 feet) high!
MOUNTING OPTIONS
directly onto wooden posts or surfaces that are 45mm x 95mm (2"x 4") or
larger. The sensor can also be mounted directly to 20mm (3/4") steel pipe
(available at hardware stores and home centers).
SOLAR CELL INSTALLATION
with the solar cell facing NORTH. This ensures
the cell receives as much sun as possible and
orients wind direction.
5-in-1 Sensor Installation
1. Fasten mounting base (included) to a post
or pole (not included) using the 4 longer
screws included in the hardware bag.
2. Insert the mounting base into the hole on
the bottom of the sensor.
3. Make sure the arrows on the top of the
sensor are pointed in the proper direction
and the bubble level is centered. The solar
cell should be facing south to properly
orient the wind direction.
4. Fasten the sensor into the mounting base
using the 2 shorter screws included in the hardware bag.
Clear Data Collected During Installation
When installation is complete, clear erroneous data from the display by
pressing the "CLEAR RECORD/ RESET" button, on the back of the display
inside the battery compartment. This button will clear data recorded since
12:00 am.
Basic Setup is Complete
The 5-in-1 sensor will now synchronize with the display. It may take a few
minutes for synchronization to complete. If both or one of the units appear to
be functioning improperly, please refer to the troubleshooting section.
Mount the sensor at a minimum height of 1.5 meters
The included mounting bracket is designed to screw
Install the sensor
The 5-in-1 sensor is now ready to use.
