compartment

Position the main unit, rain gauge, and thermo sensor

within effective range:

•Rain gauge - 100 meters / 328 feet

•Thermo sensor - 100 meters / 328 feet

IMPORTANT It is recommended that you follow the

sequence below when setting up the units:

1. Set up the main unit.

2. Set up the rain gauge, then press and hold SEARCH

on the main unit and wait until you receive a

signal.

Set up the thermo sensor, then press and hold SEARCH

on the main unit and wait until you receive a

signal.

4. In the event that you do not obtain a signal from a

remote unit please repeat the process above.

MAIN UNIT

1. Insert the batteries, matching the polarity (+ and -)

as shown in the battery compartment.

2. Press RESET, or press and hold SEARCH on the

main unit to initiate operation. The reception icon

on the main unit will blink while it is searching for

the sensor or rainfall gauge.

NOTEEvery time the battery in the main unit is changed,

repeat installation before use.

RAIN GAUGE

The rain gauge collects rain and takes readings of rainfall

rate and the total rainfall over a period of time. The

sensor can remotely transmit data to the base station.

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.

To set up the Rain Gauge:

GETTING STARTED

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.

NOTE For best results, ensure the base is horizontal to

allow maximum drainage of any collected rain.E

THERMO SENSOR

1. Insert the batteries, matching the polarity (+ and -)

as shown in the battery compartment.

1. Remove screws and slide the cover off in an

upwards motion.

2. Insert the batteries (2 x UM-3 / AA), matching the

polarities (+ / -). Press RESET after each battery

change.

3. Remove the bre tape.

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.

2. Set the channel switch to any channel. The switch

is located in the battery compartment.

3. Press RESET on the sensor.

4. Close the remote sensor battery compartment.

5. Secure the sensor in the desired location using the

wall mount or table stand.

For best results:

•Insert the batteries before you mount the sensor.

•Place the sensor out of direct sunlight and

moisture.

•Do not place the sensor more than 100 meters

(328 feet) from the main (indoor) unit.

•Position the sensor so that it faces the main

(indoor) unit, minimizing obstructions such as

doors, walls, and furniture.

•Place the sensor in a location with a clear view to

the sky, away from metallic or electronic objects.

•Position the sensor close to the main unit during

cold winter months as below-freezing temperatures

may affect battery performance and signal

transmission.

You may need to experiment with various locations to

get the best results.

Standard Alkaline batteries contain signicant amounts

of water. Because of this they will freeze in low

temperatures of approximately -12°C (10°F). Disposable

Lithium batteries have a much lower threshold for

temperature with an estimated freezing range of below

-40°C (-40°F).

Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors

such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold

may temporarily reduce the effective range between the

sensor and the base station. If the unit’s performance

fails due to low temperature, the unit will resume proper

functioning as the temperature rises to within the normal

temperature range (i.e. no permanent damage will occur

to the unit due to low temperatures).

DATA TRANSMISSION

Data is sent from the remote thermo sensor approx.

every 78 seconds and every 94 seconds from the

rain gauge. The reception icon shows the status - see

table.

THERMO SENSOR RAIN GAUGE DESCRIPTION

Searching

Connected

Disconnected

If without obvious reason the main unit display

shows that the thermo sensor or rainfall connector is

disconnected, press and hold SEARCH to enforce an

immediate search.

If that fails, check:

•The remote rain gauge and thermo sensor are still

in place.

•The batteries of the main unit, rain gauge, and

thermo sensor are still good. Replace them if

necessary.

•The transmission is within range and path is clear of

obstacles and interference. Shorten the distance if

necessary. Then press and hold SEARCH again.

LOW BATTERY WARNING

There are 3 low-battery indicators - see table.

RAINFALL

Today’s rainfall appears on the 1st line of the display

and total rainfall is shown on the 2nd line. Press in /

mm to toggle between inches and millimeters as the

unit of measurement.

RAINFALL HISTORY

The rainfall history is displayed on the 1st line of the

LCD display. The main unit can record up to 9 days

of rainfall.

The alarm will go off for one minute when the rainfall

reaches the preset value and the rain alarm indicator will

ash. A reminder beep will be emitted every minute. Once

the rain alarm is on the indicator will not stop ashing

unless is pressed or the rain alarm value is changed.

To stop the alarm and reminder beep, press any button

or change the rainfall alarm value.

To deactivate the alarm, press .

TEMPERATURE

The outdoor temperature is displayed on the 3rd line of

the LCD display. Use the °C / °F button to select between

Centigrade and Fahrenheit display units.

The indoor temperature is displayed on the 4th line of the

LCD display. Use the °C / °F button to select between

Centigrade and Fahrenheit display units.

RESET

This button should only be used when the unit is

operating in an unfavorable way. Use a blunt stylus

to hold down the button. All settings will return to their

default values.

PRECAUTIONS

This product is engineered to give you years of

satisfactory service if you handle it carefully. Here are

a few precautions:

Use HISTORY to display the record for a particular

day. The day of the record will be displayed with a

minus (-) sign.

Caution: Other sensors using the 433 MHz transmission

frequency may inuence the rainfall reading. Please

avoid placing those sensors too close to the unit.

TOTAL RAINFALL

The total rainfall is displayed on the 2nd line of the

LCD display.

To display the commencing date of the total rainfall

record, press SINCE. The date will appear on the 1st

line of the display. Press again to show the commencing

year.

To clear the existing commencing date and reset it to

start again, press and hold SINCE. The total rainfall will

now be equal to the today rainfall and the unit will start

again to collect the rainfall data.

RAINFALL ALARM
