1. Diagram above e The wind and rain sensors must be mounted within the 50 meters wireless range of the thermo hygro sensor and on the same side of the house e The wireless display must be within the 25 meters wireless range of the USB transceiver to send weather data to the PC If the sensor wireless icons E drop from the display as you move them into their intended locations the sensors may be too far from the wireless display Try moving the wireless display or the sensors closer and wait a few minutes to see if the wireless icons WE display again If the wireless icons are still not displayed after re positioning the sensors or the wireless display press and hold the UP ARROW A key for 2 seconds to re synchronize the wireless display with the sensors Wind sensor The wind sensor must be installed with the front of the sensor the solar panel facing true South or the reported wind direction will not be accurate Mount within the 50 meters wireless range of the thermo hygro sensor and on the same side of the house The roof may or may not be an ideal mounting location Secure the main unit to the shaft of the mast holder Use the right angle adaptor if the wind sensor will be mounted on a horizontal mast or surface Fasten the wind sensor to a suitable mast using the two U bolts washers and nuts included Note Mount the wind sensor onto a mast so the wind can reach the sensor unobstructed from all directions for an accurate reading The ide2. Insert two C size batteries into the thermo hygro sensor with the correct polarity gt f L m Seesaw Insert three C size batteries into the wireless display with the correct polarity NOTE Every time the wireless display receives data from the sensors the ae wireless icons WE will blink once and then return to solid if the last transmission Cs was successful A wind speed or rainfall amount that reads 0 does not mean reception failure it means that there was no wind or rain at the time of the last measurement The thermo hygro sensor syncs with the wind and rain sensors and sends all outdoor sensor data to the display The thermo hygro sensor tries for 7 minutes to sync to the wind sensor and for the rain sensor If not successful within 7 minutes the thermo hygro sensor will stop looking for the other sensors Setup troubleshooting If the sensor data fails to display for any of the outdoor sensors within 10 minutes is displayed remove the batteries from all units except for the Wind Sensor for 1 minute and start the Setup procedure again at Step 1 and completely reset the solar rain sensor see Step 2 Important x Pressure History Graph Indoor Temperature Wind Direction Barometric Pressure aan awa an EE gt d Bites Indoor Humidity BD ouraoor Wind Speed t Mjo Outdoor Temperature Forecast Icon and Weather Bb p
