RAIN GAUGE
The base station and rain gauge should be positioned
within an effective range: about 100 meters (328 feet)
in an open area.
The rain gauge should be mounted horizontally about
1 meter (3 feet) from the ground in an open area away
from trees or other obstructions to allow rain to fall
naturally for an accurate reading.
Make sure the rain gauge is connected to the base station
before installation.
To check the connection:
1. Press SELECT until the selected area icon
the middle right display area.
2. Press MODE repeatedly until
3. Tilt the tipping funnel on the rain gauge several times,
wait for a few seconds and then verify a numerical
reading on the base station.
If no reading displays, press the SEARCH button on
the back of the base station to initiate a wireless sensor
search.
To ensure a level plane:
Put a few drops of water on the cross at the base of the
funnel to check the horizontal level.
Water will pool to the center of the cross when the rain
gauge is level.
If water remains on 1-4, the gauge is not horizontal.
If necessary, adjust the level using the screw.
