Figure 7
Note: Do not install the batteries backwards. You can permanently damage the outdoor
sensors. The solar panel does not charge the batteries, so rechargeable batteries are not
recommended.
Remove the battery door on the back of the sensor by removing the set screw, as show in Figure 8.
Figure 8
Insert 3 new AA batteries and close the battery door as shown. Before closing the battery door and
tightening the set screws, make sure the washers (around the inside perimeter of the battery door)
are properly secured in their tracks.
Figure 9
10
Note: We recommend installing AA lithium batteries for the Outdoor Sensor in cold weather
environments.
Once the battery is installed, the Integrated Outdoor Sensor LED indicator will illuminate for 3
seconds and then blink every 60 seconds. The sensor is transmitting data each time it blinks.
Figure 10
NOTE: If the sensor LED does not flash after inserting the batteries, press the reset button
located at the bottom of the sensor as shown in Figure 10.
5. Installation of the Sensor Array
5.1. Pre-installation Check
Before installing the weather station in a permanent location, we recommend running it at a
temporary, easily accessible location for one week. This allows you to check all functions in advance,
ensure they are operating correctly, and familiarize yourself with the weather station and
calibration procedures.
5.2. Site Survey
Before installing the weather station, consider the following during the site survey:
1. The rain gauge must be cleaned every 3 months and the battery should be replaced every 3
months.
2. Avoid heat radiation transfer from buildings and structures. Generally, the sensor array should be
installed at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) away from any buildings, structures, ground, or roofs.
3. Avoid influencing wind speed and rainfall measurements. The installation distance of the sensor
array should be at least four times the height of the highest obstacle. For example, if a building is 20
feet (6 meters) high and the installation pole is 6 feet (2 meters) high, the installation distance
should be 4 x (20 - 6) = 56 feet (17 meters). If the weather station is installed near tall buildings,
wind speed and rainfall measurements may be inaccurate.
4. Radio signal range. Assuming no interference from buildings, trees, vehicles, high-voltage lines,
and other obstructions, the radio communication distance between the display console and the
transmitter can reach up to 330 feet (100 meters). In most cases, due to interference from
11
buildings and walls, most wireless applications can only reach up to 100 feet (30 meters). Radio
signals cannot penetrate metal buildings.
5. In the worst-case scenario, radio interference from personal computers, radios, or televisions can
completely cut off radio communication. Therefore, consider this when selecting a display console
or determining the installation location.
5.3. Adjusting the Sensor Mounting Direction
This professional weather station is suitable for use in both the Northern and Southern
Hemispheres. To ensure the accuracy of the wind direction display, please secure the direction of
the integrated outdoor sensor before installation.
Note: Wind direction is indicated by the letters N, E, S, and W. (N is north, E is east, S is south,
W is west)
Northern Hemisphere
Southern Hemisphere
Figure 11
5.3.1. Northern Hemisphere Reference
The body of the outdoor sensor is embossed with the four cardinal directions: N, E, S, W, which are
applicable only in the Northern Hemisphere.
Step 1: As shown in the diagram, there is an "S" indicator on the wind vane representing south.
Using a compass, check the direction and adjust the orientation of the entire sensor to ensure the
"S" mark on the sensor aligns with the south.
12
Figure 12
Step 2: On the display console, set the location region to the Northern Hemisphere (NOR will
appear in the time zone).
(For detailed steps on setting the location region, see Step 18 in section 9.2).
5.3.2.Southern Hemisphere Reference
For installing the integrated outdoor sensor in the Southern Hemisphere, disregard the four
directions (N, E, S, W) marked on the sensor body. When installing, adjust the orientation of the
entire outdoor sensor to ensure the solar panel faces north (and is positioned to receive maximum
sunlight), as shown in the diagram.
Step 1: Install the Integrated Outdoor Sensor
Ensure the solar panel is positioned to face north.
Figure 13
Step 2: Set the Location Region on the Display Console
13
Set the location region to the Southern Hemisphere (SOU will appear in the time zone).
(For detailed steps on setting the location region, please refer to Step 18 in section 9.2).
Note: The location region (NOR or SOU) on the display console and the sensor direction must be
adjusted according to your actual location.
If the integrated outdoor sensor is not positioned correctly during installation, it will result in
permanent wind direction errors.
5.4. Securing the Mounting Pole
Observe the bubble level next to the rain gauge to ensure the bubble is stable within the circle,
keeping the sensor array completely level. If the sensor array is not level, the rain gauge, UV, and
solar radiation sensors will not measure accurately.
Figure 14
NOTE: If the bubble level cannot be read due to mounting limitations, a horizontal line or level
can be placed across the top of the rain gauge for easier viewing.
5.4.1. Horizontal Mounting and Fixing Sensors
Fasten the integrated outdoor sensor to the mounting bar bracket with two mounting bolts
(Ø4)/nuts (M3). Then, tighten the mounting bar to your existing mounting bar using four bolts (Ø5)
and nuts (M5), or secure it to a flat surface with four self-tapping screws, as shown. (Figure 15)
14
Figure 15
5.4.2. Vertical Mounting and Fixing Sensors
Fasten the integrated outdoor sensor to the mounting bar bracket with two mounting bolts
(Ø4)/nuts (M3). Then, tighten the mounting bar to your existing mounting bar with four bolts (Ø5)
and nuts (M5), or secure it to a flat surface with four self-tapping screws, as shown.(Figure 16)
Figure 16

5.4.3. Best Practices for Wireless Communication
Wireless communication is susceptible to interference, distance, walls, and metal barriers. We
recommend the following best practices for trouble-free wireless communication:
1. Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI): Keep the console several feet away from computer
monitors and TVs.
2. Radio Frequency Interference (RFI): If you have other 433 MHz devices and communication is
intermittent, try turning off these other devices for troubleshooting purposes. You may need to
relocate the transmitters or receivers to avoid intermittent communication.
3. Line of Sight Rating: This device is rated at 300 feet line of sight (no interference, barriers, or
walls), but typically you will get 100 feet maximum. [This is under most real-world installations,
which include passing through barriers or walls.]
4. Metal Barriers: Radio frequency will not pass through metal barriers, such as aluminum siding.
If you have metal siding, align the remote and console through a window to get a clear line of sight.
The following is a table presents reception loss, versus the transmission medium. Each “wall” or
obstruction decreases the transmission range by the factor shown below:
6. Install the Display Screen
The front and back diagram of the console is shown in the figure below.

Note：It is recommended that the power adapter be plugged in at all times to minimize
display battery consumption and extend battery life. If you use battery power without the
adapter, it will not remain on constantly and will likely only last approximately 2 hours.
(2) Install the display console batteries
Remove the battery door on the back of the display (Figure 17) and install three AAA (alkaline or
lithium) batteries. The display will beep and all layouts on the display will light up for a few seconds
as a verification that the display is working properly.
(3) Use the Display Stand.
The folding tabletop stand on the back of the display console is positioned at roughly 45 degrees to
the display (Figure 18). We recommend viewing the console from a 20-degree to 30-degree angle
from above for the best display of the screen.
Figure 18
7. Start the Display Console
As shown in the figure, once the display console is powered up, it will display all layouts of the
screen for three seconds. Then, it will automatically scan all nearby integrated outdoor sensors. The
indoor data will be updated immediately, and the outdoor sensor data will be updated within a few
minutes.
17
Figure 19
In Search Mode, the Remote Search icon will blink continuously and will not stop until all
measurements have been received; then it will remain permanently lit. The console will
automatically switch to normal mode, where all other settings can be performed.
Note: Do not touch any buttons on the display until all remote sensors have reported data on
the display, or the display console will terminate the connection to the remote sensors.
When the integrated outdoor sensor is connected, the measured values (outdoor temperature,
humidity, wind speed, wind direction, gusts and average wind, rainfall, UV and sunlight index, dew
point, and sensory image) will be displayed on the display console.
Note: Ensure that the distance between the weather station's sensor and the display console
is between 10 feet (3 meters) and 100 feet (30 meters). If the weather station sensor is too close
or too far away, it may not receive the proper signal.

9.6.4.Calibration Discussion
NOTE: The calibration value can only be adjusted on the display console, the outdoor remote
sensor always displays an uncalibrated or measured value.
The purpose of calibration is to fine-tune or correct any sensor errors associated with the device's
error range. Errors can result from electronic changes (e.g., temperature sensors are resistive
thermistors or RTDs, humidity sensors are capacitive devices), mechanical changes or degradation
(e.g., moving parts wear or sensor contamination). Calibration is only useful when there is a known
calibration source to compare it to.
This section will discuss practices, procedures, and sources for sensor calibration to minimize
manufacturing and degradation errors. Do not compare data with results obtained from sources
such as the Internet, radio, television, or newspapers.
The purpose of a weather station is to measure the surrounding environmental conditions, which
vary greatly from location to location.
（1）
Temperature errors can occur when a sensor is placed too close to a heat source (such as a
building/structure, the ground, or trees).
To calibrate temperature, we recommend a mercury or red spirit (fluid) thermometer. Bi-metal
(dial) and digital thermometers (from other weather stations) are not a good source and have their
own margin of error.

Using a local weather station in your area is also a poor source due to changes in location and
timing (airport weather stations are only updated once per hour).
Place the sensor in a shaded, controlled environment next to the fluid thermometer and allow the
sensor to stabilize for 48 hours. Compare this temperature to the fluid thermometer and adjust the
console to match the fluid thermometer.
（2）
Humidity is a difficult parameter to measure electronically and can drift over time due to
contamination. Additionally, location has an adverse effect on humidity readings (such as
installation over dirt versus a lawn).
Official stations recalibrate or replace humidity sensors on a yearly basis. Due to manufacturing
tolerances, the humidity is accurate to ± 5%. To improve this accuracy, the indoor and outdoor
humidity can be calibrated using an accurate source, such as a sling psychrometer.
NOTE: The measured humidity range is between 10% and 99%. Humidity cannot be measured
accurately outside of this range. Therefore, it is not possible to calibrate humidity below 10% or
above 99%.
（3）
The display console shows two different pressures: absolute pressure (measured value) and relative
pressure (corrected for sea level).
To compare air pressure conditions at different locations, meteorologists adjust air pressure to sea
level pressure. Because barometric pressure decreases with elevation, the sea level corrected
pressure (the pressure at your location if you are at sea level) is usually higher than your measured
pressure.
Thus, at an elevation of 1,000 feet (305 meters), the absolute barometric pressure may be 28.62
inHg (969 mb), but the relative barometric pressure is 30.00 inHg (1016 mb).
The standard sea level pressure is 29.92 inHg (1013 mb). This is the average sea level pressure for
the entire world. A relative pressure measurement greater than 29.92 inHg (1013 mb) is considered
high pressure, and a relative pressure measurement less than 29.92 inHg is considered low
pressure.
To determine the relative barometric pressure at your location, look for an official reporting station
near you (the Internet is the best source for real-time barometric conditions, such as the
Weather.com or Wunderground.com websites) and set your weather station to match the official
reporting station.
NOTE: The calibration settings will be saved to the display console until a factory reset is
performed. If the console location altitude is changed, the barometric pressure will need to be
recalibrated.

66
Wind speed is the most sensitive to installation constraints. A properly installed wind speed sensor
must be 4x the distance of the tallest obstruction. For example, if your house is 20’ tall and you
mount the sensor on a 5’ pole:
Distance = 4 x (20 – 5)’ = 60’
Many installations are not perfect and installing the weather station on a roof can be difficult. Thus,
you can calibrate for this error with a wind speed multiplier.
In addition to the installation challenges, wind cup bearings (moving parts) wear over time.
Without a calibrated source, measuring wind speed can be challenging. We recommend using a
calibrated wind meter and a consistent, high-speed fan.
（5）
The rain collector is calibrated to the funnel diameter at the factory. The internal unit of the rain
collector records 0.01 inches of rainfall (called resolution) for each pour. Accumulated rainfall can
be compared to a sight glass rain gauge with an aperture of at least 4 inches.
The rain cycle view is calculated as follows:

10. Feels Like and AT Temperatures
10.1. Feels Like Temperatures
The Feels Like Temperature is a combination of the Heat Index and the Wind Chill Index.
(1) When the air temperature is below 4.4°C (40°F), the Wind Chill Index is displayed, as shown in
the following National Weather Service Wind Chill Index table:
Figure 26
(2) When the temperature is above 26.7°C (80°F), the heat index is displayed, as shown in the
following National Weather Service heat index chart:
68
Figure 27
Note: Both the Wind Chill and Heat Index are displayed uniformly as the Feels Like
Temperature.
10.2. Apparent Temperature (AT)
AT is a linear regression that is not restricted. It is more appropriate for outside conditions because
it includes wind and was intended as an assessment of what exposed body surfaces feel like in cold,
windy conditions.
Regression equations of this universal scale are formulated for indoors, outdoors in shade exposed
to wind, and outdoors exposed to wind and solar radiation. Of these, outdoors in shade exposed to
wind has been chosen as the most informative.

12.2. Weather Forecast Instructions and Limitations
Note: Weather forecasts or pressure trends are based on the rate of change of air pressure.
Generally speaking, as air pressure increases, the weather improves (from partly cloudy to sunny),
and as air pressure decreases, the weather deteriorates (from cloudy to rainy).
If the current conditions don't match the forecast icon, it is because the forecast is an estimate or
summary of how the weather is expected to change over the next 24-48 hours, which varies from
place to place. Weather trends are only a tool for predicting how the weather will change and
should never be relied upon as an accurate method of forecasting the weather. In most areas,
these predictions are only 70% accurate, so it's best to consult the National Weather Service for a
more accurate weather forecast.
12.3. Pressure Threshold
The pressure threshold (the rate of negative or positive pressure change that indicates weather
changes) can be adjusted between 2 hPa and 4 hPa (default is 2 hPa).
70
The lower the pressure threshold is set, the more sensitive it becomes to changes in the weather
forecast. Locations where pressure changes frequently require a higher pressure threshold than
those where the pressure is usually stagnant.
13. Backlight Operation
13.1. Connect the power adapter
The display will remain on only when the power adapter is connected. The display backlight has 3
levels of brightness.
When the backlight is on, short press the SNOOZE button to switch between the 3 levels of
backlight.
When the backlight is off, press and hold the SNOOZE button for 3 seconds and the backlight will
turn on permanently. The BL ON icon will be displayed in the date area for 3 seconds.
To turn off the display backlight at any time, press and hold the SNOOZE button for two seconds.
The BL OFF icon will appear in the date area for 3 seconds.
13.2. Power Not Connected
When the display is not connected to the power adapter and is operated solely by batteries, we do
not recommend leaving the display backlight on for extended periods; otherwise, the batteries will
be depleted quickly.
Note: To save power, the backlight operates differently when using batteries.
If the display console is powered only by batteries and the backlight is off, briefly press the SNOOZE
key once. The backlight will turn on for 5 seconds and will turn off after 3 seconds of inactivity.
14. Glossary of Terms
Terms
Definition
Absolute pressure
Absolute pressure is the measured atmospheric pressure and is a
function of altitude and, to a lesser extent, changes in weather
conditions.
Absolute air pressure is not corrected for sea level conditions. See
relative air pressure for details.
Relative pressure
The measured air pressure relative to your location or environmental
conditions.
HectoPascals (hPa)
A unit of pressure measured in the SI (International System of Units).
Same as the millibar (1 hPa = 1 mbar).
Inches of Mercury
(inHg)
Pressure expressed in imperial units. (1 inHg = 33.86 mbar).
71
Dew point
Dew point refers to the temperature at which water vapor condenses
into water after cooling in air of a certain humidity under constant air
pressure. The condensed water is called dew, and the dew point is a
saturation temperature.
Dew point is related to relative humidity. A high relative humidity
means the dew point is closer to the current air temperature. A relative
humidity of 100% means the dew point is equal to the current
temperature and the water in the air reaches maximum saturation.
When the dew point remains constant and the temperature rises, the
relative humidity decreases
Apparent
temperature (heat
index)
The heat index, sometimes called the apparent temperature, is a
measure of how hot it actually feels when the relative humidity is
compared to the actual air temperature. To find the heat index
temperature, look at the heat index chart (reference 10.1).
For example, if the air temperature is 96°F and the relative humidity is
65%, the heat index (how hot it feels) is 121°F.
NOTE: Because heat index values are designed for shaded, breezy
conditions, heat index values may increase by up to 15 degrees
Fahrenheit in full sun conditions.
In addition, strong winds and especially very hot, dry air can be
extremely hazardous. The shaded area above 105 degrees Fahrenheit
shows levels where continued exposure or physical activity could lead
to increasingly severe heat disorders.
The heat index is not calculated for temperatures below 80 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Rain gauge
A rain gauge is a device that measures liquid precipitation (rain) over a
period of time, rather than solid precipitation (snow, hail, or ice).
All digital rain gauges are self-emptying or self-dumping (also called
dumping rain gauges). The accuracy of a rain gauge depends on the
amount of rain that falls during each emptying cycle.
Accuracy
Precision is defined as the ability of a measurement to match the actual
value of the quantity being measured.
Calibration
Calibration is the comparison between measurements made by a
device (standard) of known magnitude or correctness with another
device (instrument) in a manner as similar as possible.
Range
Range is defined as the number and interval of measurable values.
Resolution
Resolution is defined as the number of significant digits (decimal digits)
that can be reliably measured.
72
Solar radiation
Solar radiation sensors measure solar energy from the sun.
Solar radiation is the radiant energy emitted by the sun through the
production of electromagnetic energy from nuclear fusion reactions.
The spectrum of solar radiation is close to that of a black object with a
temperature of about 5,800 K. The other half is mainly in the near
infrared part, with some in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum.
A wind vane is a device that measures wind direction, usually in
conjunction with an anemometer.
Wind vane
A wind vane is a device that measures wind direction, usually in
conjunction with an anemometer. Wind direction refers to the
direction the wind is blowing from. For example, if the display shows
the wind direction as south, it means the wind is blowing from the
south.

If the base station signal reception is good, the
transmitter battery can last at least 3 months.
If the base station reception signal is
intermittent, the transmitter battery life may
be reduced.
We recommend using lithium batteries for the
transmitter in cold climates below -20°C (-4°F).
16. Maintenance
(1) We recommend cleaning the rain gauge once every 3 months. Twist the funnel clockwise and lift
it vertically to expose the rain gauge assembly (see the image below). Then wipe the internal rain
gauge assembly with a damp cloth to remove any dirt, debris, or insects. If insect infestation is a
concern, you can lightly spray the array with an insecticide.

Figure 29
(2) Clean the solar radiation sensor and solar panel with a damp cloth every 3 months. Replace the
battery every 3 months. If left for too long, the battery may leak due to environmental factors. In
harsh environments, check the battery every 3 months (when cleaning the solar panel).
(3) When replacing the battery, apply anti-corrosion compound to the battery terminals, which is
available on Amazon and most hardware stores.
(4) In snowy conditions, spray the top of the weather station with anti-icing silicone spray to
prevent snow accumulation.
(5) Over time, the smoothness of the rain gauge funnel surface will degrade due to dirt, debris, and
UV rays. We recommend spraying Teflon spray on the rain gauge funnel and coil filter to reduce the
surface tension of the water.

Problem
Solution
The wireless remote control is
not reporting to the console.
The display console has dotted
lines; dashes (--.-).
If any sensor communication is lost, dashes (--.-) will appear
on the screen. To reacquire the signal, press and hold the
CHANNEL/+ button for 3 seconds, select the lost sensor, and
the remote search icon will display continuously. When the
signal is reacquired, the remote search icon will turn off and
the current value will be displayed.
You can also reset the transmitter.
After the transmitter is powered on, if the indicator light bli
nks every 60 seconds it means the outdoor unit is working p
roperly.
After the transmitter is powered on and working properly, t
75
he display has to be re-plugged in to re-
receive the transmitter signal. It usually takes 1-
3 minutes to receive the data.
Do not operate the keys or power off until the transmitter d
ata is received.
If this still does not help, please follow the steps below to
reconnect the transmitter and display to troubleshoot poor
connections:
1. Remove the batteries of the transmitter and the display.
2. Unplug the display from the power supply.
3. Put batteries in the transmitter.
4. Plug in the power of the display.
5. Put the batteries in the display after the display lights up
and the data show dashes.
Also, you can try to replace the batteries in the transmitter
with new ones.
In most cases, the maximum line-of-sight communication
distance is 100 meters (330 feet) and 30 meters (100 feet).
Move the sensor assembly closer to the display console.
If the sensor assembly is too close (less than 1.5 meters/5
feet), move the sensor assembly away from the display
console.
Install a new set of batteries for the remote sensor. In cold
weather environments, install lithium batteries.
Make sure the remote sensor is not transmitting through
solid metal (as an RF shield) or earth barriers (under a
mountain).
Keep the display console away from devices that generate
electrical noise, such as computers, televisions, and other
wireless transmitters or receivers.
Display console has weak
contrast
Replace the console batteries with a new set of batteries.
Indoor temperature and
humidity data is incorrect/the
display shows incomplete data
You can reset the display console to factory defaults by
pressing and holding the MAX/MIN/- key for at least three
seconds while plugging in the power supply. Then unplug
the display and plug it back in. (Remove the batteries before
doing this).
If any data is not displayed, press and hold the CHANNEL/+
key for three seconds until a click is heard and all data is
76
displayed as dashed lines.
The display will reacquire the signal from the transmitter.
Once the signal is reacquired, all data will be displayed.
Display brightness is very dim
Adjust the backlight (refer to Section 13).
If the brightness cannot be adjusted, it means that the
power adapter or the display interface has a poor contact
problem.
Weather forecast is inaccurate
The weather icon is a weather forecast, an estimate or
summary of weather changes in the next 24 to 48 hours,
which varies from place to place. This trend is only a tool to
predict how the weather will change, and it should never be
used as an accurate method to predict the weather.
If you are just starting to use the weather station, wait for
about a week for the pressure sensor to slowly adapt to the
environment, and then adjust the data and weather
forecast.
After using it for a while, if the weather forecast is still
inaccurate, you can follow the steps in the manual to
manually set the weather icon to show the actual weather.
(Refer to 9.2)
Rainfall display is
incorrect/zero
Check and verify the following points when you find you
rainfall is not working or inaccurate:
1.Make sure that the level bubble is seated in the small
black circle in the installation. Sloping installation might
cause incorrect reading or even not working.
2. Shake the sensor array back and forth. After hearing the
click sound inside the sensor array, observe whether the
rainfall reading in the console changes.
3. Check whether the funnel in the rain collector was
blocked by tree leaves or debris. Remove the rain collector
to check whether the rain tip was blocked by insects or
debris.
4. Check whether different rainfall histories are correct.
Check the Quick Mode part in the instruction manual to
know how to get rainfall histories in different periods.
5. An example on how rainfall histories for different periods
are calculated.
