The following Quick Start Guide provides only the necessary steps to

with references to the pertinent sections.
4. Pre-Installation Checkout and Site Survey
4.1 Pre-Installation Checkout
Before installing your weather station in the permanent location, we
recommend operating the weather station for one week in a temporary
location with easy access. This will allow you to check out all the
functions, ensure proper operation, and familiarize you with the
weather station and calibration procedures. This will also allow you to
test the wireless range of the weather station.
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 batteries every 2-3 years. Provide easy access to the
weather station.
