COVERING BOTH PINS

-Re-install the AA Alkaline batteries in the RAIN TRANSMITTER once the jumper has been moved.
-Check LED on receiver to make sure it is blinking ORANGE every 4 seconds.
-Check the instruments to see if the error has been corrected.
-Unlike the WIND and TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTERS, the RAIN TRANSMITTER will not automatically

exit test MODE after 15 minutes. Therefore, you must take the rain transmitter out of test mode manually. To
do so: remove the batteries, then move the jumper on the RAIN TRANSMITTER circuit board back to covering
only one pin of the 2-pin terminal (it does not matter which pin is covered). Re-install the batteries and cover.

-If the instrument continues to display the error code, call Maximum for further assistance.

-Remove and test the AA Alkaline batteries in the RAIN TRANSMITTER. If dead, replace batteries and check

operation. If good, continue to next step.

-Put the RAIN TRANSMITTER into TEST MODE by removing the batteries, then moving the jumper on the

RAIN TRANSMITTER circuit board to cover both pins of the 2-pin terminal.
