WHY ARE MY WIND CUPS NOT SPINNING?
•
Check for debris or ice preventing cups from moving.
•
Check mounting location. Look for obstructions that prevent the wind from reaching the
sensor.
•
In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 4-6ft above the highest point on the roof in
order to clear nearby obstructions and read accurately.
•
A 50-foot clearance in all directions is best.
•
Push down firmly on the center of the cups to reseat them.
•
Cups are replaceable.
CAN I REPLACE MY WIND CUPS?
Occasionally, a bad storm with hail or debris that will damage your wind cups. These are easily
replaced.
Replace wind cups:
1.
Loosen the screw on side of cups
2.
Remove cups
3.
Install new cups
4.
Tighten screw
Note: The screw in the wind cups will fit on the flat side of the metal stem on the sensor.
WIND READING 0.00: WHY DO I ONLY SEE 0.00 FOR WIND
SPEED?
The 0.00 means your wind sensor is connected to your station.
•
Check that the cups spin freely. Something may be preventing movement.
•
Are your wind cups unbroken? After a storm it is good to check this.
