Thermo-hygro Sensor
An ideal mounting place for the thermo-hygro sensor would be the outer wall beneath
the extension of a roof, as this will protect the sensor from direct sunlight and other
extreme weather conditions.
To wall mount, use the 2 screws to affix the wall bracket to the desired wall, plug in
the thermo-hygro sensor to the bracket and secure both parts by the use of the
supplied screw and ensure that the cables from the wind and rain sensors are
correctly plugged in otherwise data transmission errors could occur.

Wind Sensor
Firstly, check that the wind-fan and the wind-vane can rotate freely before fixing the
unit. For correct and accurate readings it is important to mount the sensor so that the
front (marked E) is pointing in East-West direction. The wind sensor should now be
mounted using the screw or cable tie provided onto a solid wall/ panel mast or mast to
allow the wind to travel around the sensor unhindered from all directions (ideal mast
size should be from diameter about
5

”
to 1

).
Once the wind sensor is fixed onto the mast, connect the cable to the corresponding
thermo-hygro sensor socket so that operating power supply can be received and data
can be transmitted to the base center.
