Adding a Station
11
▲
Set Rain Cal (see ”Set Rain Cal” on page 25)
Set station’s rainfall calibration number.
▲
Enter Total Rainfall (see ”Set Total Rain” on page 27)
Set total rainfall amount on station and software. You must enter this informa-
tion from the software if you want you station and software readings to agree.
▲
Set Time and Date (see ”Set Time” on page 23)
Set the time and date on the station, software, and computer to make sure all
three are synchronized.
Note:
When you set the time and date, you will be prompted to clear your archive memory (see
”Archive Memory” on page 91 for information on the archive memory). If you do not clear
archive memory, you may end up with data stored at an incorrect time or duplicate
records. We recommend that you download before setting the time (unless you are creat-
ing a brand new station) so you may safely clear the archive memory.
▲
Set Archive Interval (see ”Set Archive Interval” on page 24)
Select the interval at which you want data stored to the WeatherLink’s archive
memory (see ”Archive Memory” on page 91).
▲
Set Station Alarms (see ”Set Alarms” on page 28)
Set alarm thresholds on the station.
▲
Set Auto Clear (see ”Auto Clear” on page 30)
Specify the high/low registers and rainfall registers you want cleared at the
same time each day and the time at which you want them cleared.
▲
Set Auto Download Time(s) (see ”Auto Download” on page 31)
Specify the stations and the times at which you want data automatically
downloaded each day.
At each step in the walkthrough procedure, the software will provide confirma-
