LOCATE AWAY FROM WIND OBSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT mount the sensor with obstructions around it.
Consider a location that is a wide open area, with few
structures around to ensure accurate wind speed measurement.

3-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 high!
MOUNTING OPTIONS
The included mounting bracket is designed to screw directly
onto wooden posts or surfaces that are 2”x4” or larger. The sensor can also be
mounted directly to 3/4” steel pipe (available at hardware stores and home centers).
LEVEL INSTALLATION
Use a
bubble level (not included) to ensure
level installation for accurate wind
measurement.
Top or Side Mount
1. Insert the mounting base into the hole
on the bottom of the sensor.
2. Use one of the screws included in the
hardware bag to fasten the lower
sensor housing to the mounting base.
3. Fasten mounting base to a post or
railing using 2 screws.
Pipe Mount
1. Insert pipe or similar item all the way into
the hole on the bottom of the sensor. Note:
Mounting base is not used.
2. Use one of the screws included in the
hardware bag to fasten the lower sensor
housing securely to the pipe.
The 3-in-1 sensor is now ready to use.
Basic Setup is Complete
The 3-in-1 sensor will now synchronize with
the display unit. 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.
