Operation Manual
When securing into place, check that rain excess will not
collect and store at the base of the unit but can flow out be-
tween the base and the mounting surface (test by pouring
clean water).
After mounting the rain sensor, connect the cable to the
thermo-hygro sensor at the corresponding socket so power
supply can be received and data be transmitted to the base
station
The rain sensor is now operable. For testing purposes, very
slowly pour a small amount of clean water into the rain sensor
funnel. The water will act as rainfall and will be received and
displayed at the base station after about 2 minutes delay i.e.
when the reading interval is reached (to clear this testing data
on the base station, refer to the section “MIN/MAX Mode”
below).
Mounting the thermo-hygro Sensor
Wall Bracket
Rain Cover
Main Unit
An ideal mounting place for the thermo-hygro sensor would be
the outer wall beneath the extension of a roof, as this will
protect the sensor from direct sunlight and other extreme
weather conditions.
To wall mount, use the 2 screws to affix the wall bracket to the
desired wall, plug in the thermo-hygro sensor to the bracket
and secure both parts by the use of the supplied screw and
ensure that the cables from the wind and rain sensors are
correctly plugged in otherwise data transmission errors could
occur.
