Micro Weather Station (MWS
®
) User Guide – Commercial Series
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The MWS comes equipped with a standard ¼-20 threaded “camera” mount feature on its baseplate.
Intellisense recommends and offers two proven mounting solutions for the MWS to meet the needs of
lightweight and rugged portable deployment:
1.
MWS Tripod – a low profile and fixed-height collapsible tripod with gimbal for leveling
2.
MWS Pole Mount – a short, lightweight pole to temporarily affix to existing poles and structures
For all mounting solutions, the mount must be weighted down or rigidly affixed to a substrate to prevent the
dislodgement or accidental tipping of the system during high winds or other unintended incidents. Please
note: the mounting solution should be rigidly emplaced
before
the MWS is installed and turned on.
MWS Installation – Tripod
1.
Place the tripod on level ground with a
clear view of the sky.
2.
Secure the tripod to the ground with
an anchor or weight (25-50 lb weight
is recommended) attached to center
eyebolt.
3.
If possible, secure the tripod legs to
the ground with stakes or by adding
weights on top of nylon webbing.
CAUTION:
The MWS Tripod must be secured
to the ground with the center eyebolt before
attaching the MWS.
MWS Installation – Pole Mount
1.
Place the grooved side of the pole
mount against a rigid, secure, and
vertically oriented pole.
2.
Secure the pole mount using the
included zip ties.
