Follow these steps to secure the mast to the wall mounting brackets:
1. Loosen the bolts on the outside of the wall mounting brackets so shorter section of
the mast can be inserted into the slots on the brackets (do not loosen the screws that
hold the brackets to the wall).
2. Insert the mast into and through both wall mounting bracket slots and tool tighten
bolts.
Securing the Sensors to the Mast
Follow these steps to secure the sensors to the mast so that the sensors are oriented properly
and so that they meet the minimum required height above the roof surface (refer to
“
Standard Outdoor Components ,” page 12):
1. If your mast is in more than one section, mount the sensors on the top section. The
sections can be joined after securing the sensors and making the appropriate
connections.
2. Tilt the mast so that the sensor U-bolts can slide down over the top.
3. Mount the Rain Gauge by sliding its U-bolt down the mast until it is approximately
five feet below the top. Finger-tighten the U-bolt, but leave its cable loose for now.
4. Mount the Sensor Shelter by sliding its U-bolt down the mast until it is two feet
below the top. It should be directly opposite the Rain Gauge so that it does not
block the rain when raised. Finger-tighten the U-bolt making sure the shelter is
upright so that rain and snow cannot fall inside. Do not connect cables yet.
5. Remove the orientation ring (circular piece of plastic with a pipe clamp) from the
Wind Sensor box. Slide the orientation ring down the mast approximately six inches
and tighten it enough to prevent it from moving. Carefully remove the Wind Sensor
from its box (its cable is already attached) and place it on the top of the mast so that
the black junction box will face SOUTH when the mast is raised. Securely tighten
pipe clamp. Loosen orientation ring and slide it up so that its key fits into the Wind
Sensor's notch, then tighten ring (the orientation ring allows the Wind Sensor to be
removed for maintenance without losing direction reference). Do not secure or
connect the Wind Sensor cable at this point.
