•Install the ISS as level as possible to ensure accurate rain and wind measurements. Use the
built in bubble level on the top of the ISS, just above the solar panel, to make sure the ISS
is level.
•In the Northern Hemisphere, the solar panel should face south for maximum sun exposure.
•In the Southern Hemisphere, the solar panel should face north for maximum sun exposure.
Note:
If you install the ISS with the solar panel pointing in a direction other than south, you will need to use the
wind direction calibration function in the Vantage Vue console in order to obtain accurate wind direction
readings. See
Vantage Vue Console Manual
for more information.
