Maintenance
1. Clean the rain gauge once every 3 months. Rotate the funnel counter-clockwise and lift to expose the rain
gauge mechanism, and clean with a damp cloth. Remove any dirt, debris and insects. If bug infestation is
an issue, spray the array lightly with insecticide
.
2. Clean the solar radiation sensor and solar panel every 3 months with damp cloth.
3. Replace batteries every 1-2 years. If left in too long, the batteries may leak due to environmental
challenges. In harsh environments, inspect the batteries every 3 months (when cleaning the solar panel).
4. When replacing the batteries, apply a corrosion preventive compound on the battery terminals, available
at Amazon and most hardware stores.
5. In snowy environments, spray the top of the weather station with anti-icing silicon spray to prevent snow
build up.

The maximum line of sight communication range is about 100m. Move the
sensor assembly closer to the receiver.
Install a fresh set of batteries in the remote sensor(s).
Make sure the remote sensors are not transmitting through solid metal
(acts as an RF shield), or earth barrier (down a hill).
Radio Frequency (RF) Sensors cannot transmit through metal barriers
(example, aluminum siding) or multiple, thick walls.
Move the receiver around electrical noise generating devices, such as
computers, TVs and other wireless transmitters or receivers.
Outdoor data not
