4.2 Site Survey
Perform a site survey before installing the weather station. Consider the
following:
1. You must clean the rain gauge every few months and change
the rechargeable batteries every 2-3 years. Provide easy
access to the weather station.
2. Avoid radiant heat transfer from buildings and structures. In
general, install the sensor array at least 5’ from any building,
structure, ground, or roof top.
3. Avoid wind and rain obstructions. The rule of thumb is to install
the sensor array at least four times the distance of the height of
the tallest obstruction. For example, if the building is 20’ tall, and
the mounting pole is 6’ tall, install 4 x (20 – 6)’ = 56’ away.
4. Wireless Range. The radio communication between receiver
and transmitter in an open field can reach a distance of up to
100meter, providing there are no interfering obstacles such as
buildings, trees, vehicles, high voltage lines. Wireless signals
will not penetrate metal buildings. Under most conditions, the
maximum wireless range is 100’.
5. Radio interference such as PCs, radios or TV sets can, in the
worst case, entirely cut off radio communication. Please take
this into consideration when choosing console or mounting
locations. Make sure your display console is at least five feet
away from any electronic device to avoid interference.
