PLACEMENT (CONTINUED)
2. To mount the rain collector, first separate the lower casing base from
the upper casing. Next locate the four holes within the lower casing
base. Then, using only hand tools (power tools may slip during use,
possibly damaging sensitive rain collector components), secure the
lower casing base to the chosen surface using the appropriate
hardware.
Wireless Rain Collector
WIRELESS
TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY &
WIND SENSORS
Both sensors are designed to mount
onto a pole structure (not included).
We recommend using plastic pipe to
reduce the likelihood of lightening
strikes metal poles would be
subject to.
Use a 3cm (outer diameter) PVC or
plastic pipe to fashion a mast to bring sensors high above
obstructions. Mount the temperature & humidity sensor directly and
the wind sensor bracket arm. Check the main unit display to make
sure you have a good wireless connection before permanently
mounting the sensors and the pole/mast.
Alternative Mounting Option
A- SEPARATE LOWER
CASING BASE
C- RE-ATTACH
UPPER CASING
The Wireless Rain Collector is designed to collect and
record liquid rainfall only, it will not detect or record
snowfall levels. It is recommended that the rain collector
be brought indoors if you live in an area that has extreme
cold weather, ice and snow during the winter months.

WEATHER CATEGORY
DISPLAY
The “DISPLAY” button cycles
through weather information
available and shows it in the
large display for easy viewing.
The following weather
information categories are
available to display in this
area:
OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE,
OUTDOOR HUMIDITY,
RAINFALL, WIND SPEED,
BAROMETRIC PRESSURE,
INDOOR TEMPERATURE,
INDOOR HUMIDITY
Note that the recorded low and high are shown below the currently displayed
weather category. While each weather category is selected and displayed in
the large display area, there is more information displayed and other options
that can be set.
HISTORY: CURRENTLY SELECTED WEATHER
Also available to you is the option to go back through 7 days of history for the
currently displayed weather category. Simply press the “HISTORY” button
repeatedly to go back 1 day per button press, up to seven days. Exit out of
history mode by pressing the “HISTORY” button an eighth time or allow the
display to exit automatically after 15 seconds of inactivity. To view the history of
another weather category, press the “DISPLAY” button to change the weather
category. Then press the “HISTORY” button to view the history of the currently
displayed weather category.
WEATHER FORECAST: ICONS
This feature gives you the predicted weather forecast for the next 12 to 24
hours based on an advanced algorithm that includes barometric pressure
system and temperature tracking. This weather station will provide the most
accurate forecast that a single station weather instrument can provide.
WEATHER FORECAST: 14 DAY LEARNING MODE
This weather station has a patent pending fourteen day learning mode
calibration process. During this learning mode the weather station will make
altitude calculations that may affect the accuracy of the forecast. Once the 14
day learning mode process is complete, the learning mode icon will disappear
and the weather forecast should be ready for superior operation. You can track
the progress of the learning mode by viewing the progress bar located just
above the future forecast weather icon display area.
WIRELESS SIGNAL: RECEPTION ICONS
The main unit has signal reception icons in the outdoor sensor display areas
and near the atomic clock display. If there are a low number of “bars” present,
you may experience no temperature display ( “--” ) or inaccuracy. See the
troubleshooting section for more tips on wireless signal reception for the
sensors and for the atomic clock signal.
