1. 5 To test for a transmission connection press and hold the CHANNEL button on the receiver for 3 seconds The display will begin to flash as the receiver searches for the remote sensor signal 6 When a transmission connection is established the receiver s LCD screen will display the wind direction wind speed temperature and humidity readings broadcast by the remote Wind Gauge unit 7 If these readings do not appear on the receiver within 10 minutes the transmission has failed Check that there are no physical obstructions between the units that might block transmissions such as sheds or trees If necessary shorten the distance between the receiver and remote units Remove all the batteries from the remote wait at least 10 seconds and then install the batteries again Repeat steps 4 6 until a successful transmission is established 8 IMPORTANT Remove the batteries from the Wind Gauge Sensor before proceeding with mounting and calibration steps The batteries will be reinstalled later after the Wind Gauge s direction is calibrated North see section on Calibrating the Wind Gauge Sensor amp Installing Batteries Mounting the Wind Gauge Sensor IMPORTANT Before mounting be sure the receiver unit and the wind gauge sensor are successfully transmitting readings to avoid having to move and remount the wind gauge sensor again See the previous section on Selecting and Testing a Location for the Sensor on how to test for transm2. Place 2 hex screws included into the 2 holes on the top of the base 4 On the bottom of the base place one of the U shaped metal plates included around the mast and through the screws The mast will be between the plate and the sensor base 5 Tighten 2 hex nuts included on the screws using an Allen wrench to hold the sensor to the mast 6 Repeat with the bottom two holes to tightly secure the sensor to the mast Mounting Option If another mast has been previously installed for example for mounting an antenna the wind gauge sensor may be mounted on that existing mast Or if there is an existing piece of 1 to 1 1 4 diameter PVC pipe or other mast that is not the correct size such as a kitchen sink vent an extender may be placed on that pipe then an extension mast may be attached to it Compass Wind Direction Vane Mast u Shaped Metal Plates Wind Vane Cups Hex Screw 10 Mounting the Wind Gauge Sensor continued To mount the Wind Gauge Sensor into the ground 1 Select a location on an open flat area of ground with the fewest obstructions possible for best wind accuracy Choose a spot with soft soil so as not to damage the mast when going into the ground but firm enough that the mast will not tip over after going in the ground No cables pipes or other objects should be under the ground at this location 2 Push one end of the mast slightly into the ground Place a wood block
3. against the other end of the mast Tap the block with a hammer or mallet against the block until the mast is buried deep enough in the ground to be stable 3 Attach the remote Wind Gauge Sensor to the mast as previously described Any location selected should have the fewest obstructions possible for best wind accuracy Roof mount Calibrating the Wind Gauge Sensor amp Installing Batteries After mounting the Wind Gauge Sensor the wind vane needs to be calibrated due north so that the Sensor can properly measure the wind direction and transmit that reading to the home receiver Be sure the batteries are removed from the Wind Gauge Sensor before the calibration Since the Sensor will orient north right after the batteries are installed the wind vane needs to be pointing north first otherwise the wind direction data transmitted to the home receiver will be incorrect Important The same Wind Direction calibration procedure steps 2 to 5 is needed for the first set up and after every battery replacement 1 Mount the Wind Gauge Sensor in a proper location as previously described If the batteries are still in the sensor open the battery compartment cover and remove the batteries 2 Use the compass on the top of the Sensor to determine due north Turn the smaller propeller shaped pointer end of the Wind Direction Indicator so it is pointing due north Hold the Pointer facing due north do not allow it to turn 3 Inse
