NOTE:
- Any metal object can attract lightning strikes, including your sensor-array mounting pole. Never install
sensor-array in stormy days.
- If you want to install a sensor-array on a house or building, consult a licensed electrical engineer to
ensure proper grounding. Direct lightning impact on a metal pole can damage or destroy your home.
- Installing the sensor at high location may result in personal injury or death. Perform as many initial
inspections and operations as possible on the ground and in buildings or houses. Only install the sensor-
array on clear, dry days.

DIRECTION ALIGNMENT
Install the wireless 7-in-1 sensor in an open
location with no obstructions above and around the
sensor for accurate rain and wind measurement.
Locate the North (N) marker on top of the 7-in-1
sensor and align the marker to point North upon
final installation with a compass or GPS. Tighten
the mounting bracket around a 30 to 40 mm
diameter pole (not included) using two screw and
nuts provided.
Use the bubble level on the 7-in-1 sensor to make
sure the sensor is completely level for proper
measurement of rainfall, UV and light intensity.

pointing to South.
1. Install the 7-IN-1 wireless sensor with its wind meter end pointing to South. (Please refer to
section

3.2 SYNCHRONIZING ADDITIONAL SENSOR(S) (OPTIONAL)
This console can display the data from additional sensors and upload to ProWeatherLive (PWL) cloud
server for user to view the data in PWL website and App. Please contact your local retailer for details of
difference sensors.
Some of these sensors are multi-channel. Before inserting the batteries, set the channel number if channel
slide switch is located at back of sensors (inside battery compartment). For their operations please refer to
the manuals that come with the products.
