WIND SPEED SENSOR
WIND CUPS SPINNING SLOW OR NOT SPINNING
Check for debris or ice in cups.
Check mounting location. Look for obstructions that prevent the wind from
reaching the sensor.
In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 4-6ft above the highest point on the
roof in order to clear nearby obstructions and read accurately.
A 50-foot clearance in all directions is best.
Push down firmly on the center of the cups to reseat them.
Cups are replaceable.
REPLACE WIND CUPS
Replace wind cups:
1.
Loosen the screw on side of cups
2.
Remove cups
3.
Install new cups
4.
Tighten screw
Note: The screw in the wind cups will fit on the flat side of the metal stem on the
sensor.
WIND SPEED IS 0.00
Check that the wind cups attach to the sensor. Occasionally they can come off.
Check that the cups seat properly by pushing on the center of the cups.
Check that the cups spin freely.
WIND SPEED IS INACCURATE
Check the unit of measure (MPH, KM/H or M/S).
Check to see if the Wind speed station receives the same repetitive wind speed
recording from the sensor multiple times.
Confirm the direction is working correctly.
Check that the cups turn freely.
Check for obstructions that prevent clear wind flow to the cups.
Check mounting. In most cases, the wind sensor needs to be 6 feet or more
above the highest point on the roof in order to clear nearby obstructions and
read accurately. A 50-foot clearance in all directions is best.
It is helpful to send pictures of the sensor mounting, if you need to contact
customer support.
