DATA CLEARING                                                                                                                                                   

During installation of the wireless 5-IN-1 sensor, the sensors were likely to be triggered, resulting in erroneous 

rainfall and wind measurements. After the installation, user may clear out all the erroneous data from the 

Display Main Unit, without needing to reset the clock and re-establish pairing. Simply press and hold the

 [ 

HISTORY ]

 key for 10 seconds. This will clear out any data recorded before.

POINTING 5-IN-1 SENSOR TO THE SOUTH                                                                                                        

The outdoor 5-IN-1 sensor is calibrated to be pointing to North by default. However, in some cases, users may 

wish to install the product with the arrow pointing towards the South:

1. First install the outdoor 5-IN-1 sensor with its arrow pointing to the South.

2. On the Display main unit, press and hold the 

[ WIND ]

 key for 8 seconds until the upper part (Northern 

Hemisphere) of the compass lights up and blinking.

3. Use 

[   ] 

key / 

[   ] 

key to change to lower part (Southern Hemisphere).

4. Press the 

[ WIND ]

 key to confirm and exit.

Northern hemisphere

Southern hemisphere

Note:

 

Changing from hemisphere setting will automatically switch the direction of the moon phase on the display.

MOON PHASE                                                                                                                                                        

In the Northern hemisphere, the moon waxes (the part of the moon we see that glows after the New Moon) 

from the right. Hence the sun-lit area of the moon moves from right to left in the Northern Hemisphere, while 

in the Southern Hemisphere, it moves from left to right. Below is the table which illustrate how the moon will 

appear on the main unit.
