Figure 4 Inserting 3xAA batteries in the battery compartment, as show in Figure 5. Figure 5 Close the battery cover. Make sure the gasket (around the battery compartment) is properly seated in its place prior to closing the door. Tighten the set screw. Note: Do not install the batteries backwards. You can permanently damage the sensors. The solar panel does not charge the batteries, so rechargeable batteries are not needed or recommended. Note: We recommend installing Lithium AA batteries for sensors.

Note: If the sensor does not power up after inserting the batteries, press the reset button shown in Figure 6. Figure 6 3.4.2Sensor Operation Verification The following steps verify proper operation of the sensors prior to installing the sensor array. 1. Verify proper operation of the rain gauge. Tip the sensor array back and forth several times. You should hear a “clicking”sound within the rain gauge. Verify the rain reading on data is not reading 0.00. Each “click”represents 0.3mm of rainfall. 2.

Figure 9 5. Low Battery Icon A low battery indicator icon is shown in the display window for Integrated outdoor transmitter. When the low battery icon appears (the battery voltage is lower than 3.6V), replace the batteries in the sensor with fresh batteries. Be sure to never mix old and new batteries, and never mix battery types such as alkaline and lithium together. 6.Specifications 6.1 Wireless Specifications • • • Line of sight wireless transmission (in open air): 1000m.

2. Replace the wind, rain and thermo-hygrometer transmitter batteries once every 1-2 years 8 Troubleshooting Guide. Problem Solution Outdoor Temperature do not agree Allow up to one hour for the sensors to stabilize due to signal filtering. A known source and outdoor temperature sensors should agree within 2 °C (the sensor accuracy is ± 1 °C). Outdoor Humidity do not agree Allow up to one hour for the sensors to stabilize due to signal filtering.
