Rain Gauge Installation
• To ensure accurate rain measurement,
the rain gauge MUST be placed on a
flat, level surface.
• Ensure the rain gauge is not placed in
a low spot that could become flooded
or in an area where there are obstruc-
tions above it.
Placement for Maximum Accuracy
Proper placement is critical to the accuracy and
performance of this product.
Important Placement Guidelines
• Rain gauge transmits wireless signal up to 100 ft (30 m).
Locate away from objects that may limit wireless
communication, like thick walls or metal surfaces.
• Mount at least 3 ft (0.9 m) or higher above the ground
for optimal wireless range.
