Wireless Rain Gauge Interface
This unit will only interface with the K-Rain KR0203 Wireless Rain Gauge and
Weather Station. (The KR0203 is available to purchase separately).
The RPS612 does not need any additional parts or wiring to communicate with the
KR0203 Wireless Rain Gauge. Simply install the Rain Gauge onto your gutter or
open space where it is exposed to Rain.
Pairing the Wireless Devices
The Rain Gauge & Monitor must be as close
as possible to the controller for the wireless initialisation
NOTE:
Move the Rain Sensor by-pass switch to “ON”
1. Make sure the power is plugged in to the RPS 612.
2. Unscrew the fascia panel of the controller.
3. Hold the “Reset Button” down. (see image to right)
NOTE:
The re-set button is located under the terminal
cover and at the “rear” of the PCB at the far right hand
end.
4. Place 3 x AAA - ALKALINE batteries into the Rain
Gauge and close the battery cover, then 2 x AA
ALKALINE batteries into the Monitor.
(make sure you place the batteries in the above order
to enable the Wireless pairing to connect correctly
with the RPS 612 Controller)
5. Once the batteries are installed, release the “Reset Button”.
6. You will see 3 lights appear then disappear - then the “Signal OK” light will appear
and disappear. (This confirms that the wireless signal has been linked)
7. Replace the fascia panel screws.
8. Lastly connect 1 x 9V - ALKALINE battery to the RPS612 Controller.
(This enables it to hold it’s wireless settings in the controllers memory)
