Mounting
Step 4:
• Remove the pipes of the stainless steel mast
(I)
from the packaging.
• Join the pipes together. The previously assem-
bled weather sensor is fixed to the end of the pipe
that is marked with a sticker.
• Place the fully assembled sensor within the po-
tential transmission radius (up to 400 m typically
in the open air, with damping caused by building
walls taken into account). Choose a free position
in which it is possible for rain to fall directly into
the rain sensor, but where there is no risk of in-
accurate wind measurements caused by nearby
buildings, trees, etc.
It may be placed in a sunny location since the tem-
perature sensor is located in a shaded, ventilated
area of the housing.
• Push the assembled end of the stainless steel
mast
(I)
into the ground until you are sure that the
sensor will be stable.
If the weather sensor topples over, it may cause
injury or damage to vehicles and objects.
