If the sensor wireless icons drop from the display as you move them into their
intended locations, the sensors may be too far from the wireless display. Try
moving the wireless display or the sensors closer and wait a few minutes to see if
the wireless icons display again. If the wireless icons are still not displayed
after re-positioning the sensors or the wireless display, press and hold the

ARROW key for 2 seconds to re-synchronize the wireless display with the sensors.
WIND SENSOR
The wind sensor must be installed
with the front of the sensor (the solar panel)
facing true South
, or the reported wind direction will not be accurate. Mount
within the
164 foot
wireless range of the thermo-hygro sensor and on the same
side of the house. The roof may or may not be an ideal mounting location.
Secure the main unit to the shaft of the mast holder. Use the right-angle adaptor
if the wind sensor will be mounted on a horizontal mast or surface.
Fasten the wind sensor to a suitable mast using the two U-bolts, washers and nuts
included.
Note:
Mount the wind sensor onto a mast so the wind can reach the
sensor unobstructed from all directions for an accurate reading. The ideal mast
is between 0.62" and 1.3” in diameter. The wind sensor DOES NOT have
replaceable batteries, it consumes solar power and charges the internal battery
pack automatically.
RAIN SENSOR
The rain sensor should be mounted on a level surface in an open area within the
164 foot
wireless range of the thermo-hygro sensor and on the same side of the
house. Mount the rain sensor at least 1 foot off the ground level for optimum
wireless transmission. The rain sensor should be accessible to allow for period
cleaning of debris or insects.
THERMO-HYGRO SENSOR
The thermo-hygro sensor is "weather resistant", but not "water proof". To ensure
an extended life of your sensor, mount it in a semi-covered place out of the
elements. An ideal location for the thermo-hygro sensor is under the eaves on
the North side of the house to avoid the effects of sunlight. Mount the sensor 18"
down from the eaves to ensure optimum performance. This way the weather
