Note:
Should any outdoor data not be received from the sensors (when “- - -“ is
displayed), check all cables are correctly installed. Then user shall remove the
batteries from all units and redo the set-up procedures after about 5 minutes.
Wind speeds that read zero does not mean reception failure, it simply means
that there was no wind at the time of reading the data.
Mounting the units:
Users must take their surroundings into consideration before deciding which method
is best suited for them. Connection by cable is advantageous in that data from the
sensors to the base station is interference free. Using 915MHz wireless transmission
gives users little restriction on placement as that all units can be positioned virtually
anywhere to within a 330 ft radius of the base station. You must decide which method
is best suited to you. For cable connecting, please ensure that the cable included in
this set meets with your distance requirements (see accessories in the main user
manual for adding extension cables).
Important: Ensure all signals can be received and/or all cable distances meet with
your requirements at the point of fixing particularly before you start drilling any
mounting holes.
