5-in-1 Sensor Installation Guidelines
INSTALLATION HEIGHT
Mount the sensor at a minimum height of 5 feet
(1.5 meters) off the ground, in an open area. Higher is better for wind
measurements - The National Weather Service recommends 33 feet
(10 meters) high!
MOUNTING OPTIONS
The included mounting bracket it designed to screw
directly onto wooden posts or surfaces that are 2 x 4 (4.5 cm x 9.5 cm) or larger.
The sensor can also be mounted directly to common 3/4” (20 mm) steel pipe.
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.
The 5-in-1 sensor is now
ready to use.
Clear Data Collected During Installation
When installation is complete, press and release the “RESET” button, located
on the back of the display inside the battery compartment, to clear erroneous
data from the display.
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.
