TRANSMITTER SETUP
Before following the steps below, make sure you have the following items:
-
Compass (not included)
- 9 x AA batteries (included)
- 10 screws (included)
Setting the wind gauge
The wind gauge is a sensor that transmits the wind speed and the direction to
the receiver.
1. To install, (see diagram F)
2. There are 3 methods to mount the wind gauge (See diagram H).
If you are installing the shaft in a horizontal position, remove the cap first.
Note: 4 plugs are provided to screw the wind gauge’s plate to a
concrete or brick surface.
Note: Before mounting, you must use a compass to align the “N”marking on
the plate of the wind gauge so that it is facing north (see diagram I).
To see the North marking, you must temporarily remove the wind gauge fin.
This step is necessary to indicate the correct wind direction.
3. Mounting the wind gauge (see diagram I)
Note: Mount the wind gauge in an open space, as high as possible and
without any nearby walls or obstacles, in the direct flow of the wind.
- attatch the cups to the wind sensor body with the 3mm x 8mm screws.
-
make sure the top of the wind gauge is stable and level.
-
To enure the most accurate readings, make sure that the wind cup and the fin
are freely mobile.
