GETTING STARTED
SET UP REMOTE WIND SENSOR
The wind sensor can take 3 readings:
The wind speed and directions
The outdoor temperature (Channel 1 only)
The outdoor relative humidity (Channel 1 only)
The sensor is battery operated and is capable of transmitting data to the base station
wirelessly within an approximate operating range of 100 meters (328 feet).
NOTE
For best results, ensure that the wind direction indicator on the wind sensor
points to the North to enable an accurate reading. The sensor also should be
positioned in an open area away from trees or other obstructions.
To set up the wind sensor main body:
1. Assemble the wind direction pointer on the top of the
wind sensor.
2. Use the screw (Type B) to fix.
3. Assemble the wind vanes on the top of the wind pointer.
4. Use the screw (Type B) to fix.
