Page| 8 xHigh-efficient solar panels maintain operation throughout all seasons xTransmission range: 164 feet (Open field, free of obstructions) RAIN SENSOR xSelf-emptying bucketxTransmission range: 164 feet (Open field, free of obstructions)SETTING UP: IMPORTANT: Make sure to observe the correct polarity when inserting batteries. The "+" markings on the batteries must line up with the diagrams inside the battery compartments. Inserting the batteries incorrectly may result in permanent damage to the units. During the setup process, place the wireless display and the outdoor sensors on a surface with 3-10 feet between the sensors and the display. Only use Alkaline Batteries, rechargeable batteries may not work. 1. It is important to allow sufficient light to reach the solar panel while activating the wind sensor. Make sure the lights are on in the setup room and the solar panel is facing a 60W light bulb or brighter - do not cover with hands or other objects. Remove the black protective foil on the solar panel and use the provided plastic reset rod to gently press the reset button once in the hole on the bottom of the sensor. 2. Insert two "AA" size batteries into the rain sensor with the correct polarity. 3. Insert two "C" size batteries into the thermo-hygro sensor with the correct polarity.4. Insert three "C" size batteries into the wireless display with the correct polarity. NOTE: Every time the wireless display receives data from the sensors, the wireless icons will blink once and then return to solid if the last transmission was successful. A wind speed or rainfall amount that reads "0" does not mean reception failure, it means that there was no wind or rain at the time of the last measurement. The thermo-hygro sensor syncs with the wind and rain sensors and sends all outdoor sensor data to the display. The thermo-hygro sensor tries for 4 minutes to sync to the wind sensor and then 4 minutes for the rain sensor. If not successful within 4 minutes, the thermo-hygro sensor will stop looking for the other sensors. 5. Setup troubleshooting: If the sensor data fails to display for any of the outdoor sensors within 10 minutes, (“- - -“ is displayed), remove the
Page| 9 batteries from all units for 1 minute and start the Setup procedure again at Step 1. MOUNTING THE SENSORS AND PLACEMENT OF THE WIRELESS DISPLAY: IMPORTANT: Ensure that all of the sensor data can be received at the intended mounting locations before you drill mounting holes. The wind and rain sensors have a wireless range of 164 feet & the thermo-hygro sensor has a wireless range of 330 feet. Keep in mind that the ranges equate to an open air scenario with no obstructions. Each obstruction (roof, walls, floors, ceilings, etc.) will reduce the range. The thermo-hygro sensor measures outdoor temperature & humidity and collects the data from the wind and the rain sensors and sends all outdoor weather data to the wireless display, so the thermo-hygro sensor must be within the 330 foot wireless range of the wireless display. This allows the wind and rain sensors to be placed relative to the thermo-hygro sensor rather than the wireless display. See Wireless Data Diagram above. xThe wind and rain sensors must be mounted within the 164 foot wireless range of the thermo-hygro sensor and on the same side of the house. xThe wireless display must be within the 80 foot wireless range of the USB transceiver to send weather data to the PC.

Page| 10 If the sensor wireless icons drop from the display as you move them into their intended locations, the sensors may be too far from the wireless display. Try moving the wireless display or the sensors closer and wait a few minutes to see if the wireless icons display again. If the wireless icons are still not displayed after re-positioning the sensors or the wireless display, press and hold the ŸUPARROW key for 2 seconds to re-synchronize the wireless display with the sensors. WIND SENSOR The wind sensor must be installed with the front of the sensor (the solar panel) facing true South, or the reported wind direction will not be accurate. Mount within the 164 foot wireless range of the thermo-hygro sensor and on the same side of the house. The roof may or may not be an ideal mounting location. Secure the main unit to the shaft of the mast holder. Use the right-angle adaptor if the wind sensor will be mounted on a horizontal mast or surface. Fasten the wind sensor to a suitable mast using the two U-bolts, washers and nuts included. Note: Mount the wind sensor onto a mast so the wind can reach the sensor unobstructed from all directions for an accurate reading. The ideal mast is between 0.62" and 1.3” in diameter. The wind sensor DOES NOT have replaceable batteries, it consumes solar power and charges the internal battery pack automatically. RAIN SENSOR The rain sensor should be mounted on a level surface in an open area within the 164 foot wireless range of the thermo-hygro sensor and on the same side of the house. Mount the rain sensor at least 1 foot off the ground level for optimum wireless transmission. The rain sensor should be accessible to allow for period cleaning of debris or insects. THERMO-HYGRO SENSOR The thermo-hygro sensor is "weather resistant", but not "water proof". To ensure an extended life of your sensor, mount it in a semi-covered place out of the elements. An ideal location for the thermo-hygro sensor is under the eaves on the North side of the house to avoid the effects of sunlight. Mount the sensor 18" down from the eaves to ensure optimum performance. This way the weather
Page| 11 data collected by the sensor will not be affected by the temperature of the air coming out of the attic. To wall mount the thermo-hygro sensor, fix the wall holder onto the desired wall using the included screws, plug the sensor firmly into the wall holder and replace the rain cover if it is not already in place. Note: After mounting the units, if the weather data is not received, press and hold the ŸUP ARROW key for 2 seconds to synchronize the wireless display to the sensors.

HYSTERESIS To compensate for fluctuation of the weather data, which may cause the weather alarm to ring constantly if the measured reading is close to the alarm level, a hysteresis function has been implemented for each weather alarm. For example, if the high temperature alarm is set to 77°F and the temperature reaches 77°F, the alarm will be activated. If the temperature then drops to 76.8°F (a change of less than 1.8°F) and then increases to 77°F again, the data will blink, but no alarm will be activated. The temperature would have to drop below 75.2°F (with a pre-set hysteresis of 1.8°F) so that the alarm can be produced again. Hysteresis values for the various weather data types are given in the table. Note: The temperature or humidity data will keep flashing even after a weather alarm has been switched off by a key press. The flashing value indicates that the current weather condition is out of the pre-set weather alarm limit(s). Weather data Hysteresis Temperature 1.8°F Humidity 3% RH Pressure 0.029 inHg Wind speed 6.2 mph
Page| 27 WEATHER FORECAST AND WEATHER TENDENCY WEATHER FORECASTING ICONS: Sunny Cloudy with sunny intervals RainyFor every sudden or significant change in the air pressure, the weather icons will update accordingly to represent the change in weather. (Every time a new average pressure value has been obtained (once per minute), this value is compared with an internal reference value. If the difference between these values is bigger than the selected weather tendency sensitivity, the weather-icon changes, either for worse or for better. In this case, the current pressure value becomes the new weather tendency reference.) If the icons do not change, either the air pressure has not changed or the change has been too small for the Weather Center to register. So you may adjust the "sensitivity" of the pressure change checking in the setting mode –see WEATHER TENDENCY SENSITIVITY VALUE SETTING above. However, if the icon displayed is a sun or raining cloud, there will be no change of icon if the weather gets any better (with sunny icon) or worse (with rainy icon) since the icons are already at their extremes. The displayed icon forecasts the weather in terms of getting better or worse and not necessarily sunny or rainy as each icon indicates. For example, if the current weather is cloudy and the rainy icon is displayed, it does not mean that the product is faulty because it is not raining. It simply means that the air pressure has dropped and the weather is expected to get worse but not necessarily rainy. Note: After setting up, readings for weather forecasts should be disregarded for the next 48-60 hours. This will allow sufficient time for the Weather station to collect air pressure data at a constant altitude and therefore result in a more accurate forecast.
Page| 28 Common to weather forecasting, absolute accuracy cannot be guaranteed. The weather forecasting feature is estimated to have an accuracy level of about 75% due to the varying areas the Weather Center has been designed for use. 75% accuracy is comparable to the best meterological forecasting rate. In areas that experience sudden changes in weather (for example from sunny to rain), the Weather Center will be more accurate compared to use in areas where the weather is stable most of the time (for example mostly sunny). If the Weather Center is moved to another location significantly higher or lower than its initial standing point (for example from the ground floor to the upper floors of a house), discard the weather forecast for the next 48-60 hours, as the Weather Center may mistake the new location as being a possible change in air-pressure when really it is due to the slight change of altitude. WEATHER TENDENCY INDICATOR Working together with the weather icons is the weather tendency indicators (arrow located on the left and right sides of the weather icons). When the indicator points upwards, it means that the air-pressure is increasing and the weather is expected to improve, but when indicator points downwards, the air-pressure is dropping and the weather is expected to become worse. Taking this into account, one can see how the weather has changed and is expected to change. For example, if the indicator is pointing downwards together with cloud and sun icons, then the last noticeable change in the weather was when it was sunny (the sun icon only). Therefore, the next change in the weather will be cloud with rain icons since the indicator is pointing downwards. Note: Once the weather tendency indicator has registered a change in air pressure, either the upward or downward tendency arrow will be displayed until the tendency changes again. AIR PRESSURE HISTORY GRAPH The LCD shows the relative air pressure value and the air pressure history on a bar graph.
Page| 29 Press the SET key to toggle between Mode1 and Mode2 of the display. Mode 1: The bar graph displays the air pressure history of the past 24 hours in seven steps. The horizontal axis represents the last 24 hours of air pressure recording (-24, -18, -12, -8, -6, -3 and 0 hour). Mode 2: The bar graph displays the air pressure history of the past 72 hours in seven steps. The horizontal axis represents the last 72 hours of air pressure recording (-72, -48, -36, -24, -12, -6 and 0 hour). The vertical bars are plotted at each of the seven steps and give the trend over the recorded period. The 0 hour vertical bar will always display at the midline height to indicate the current air pressure. The varying height of bars inn other columns on the graph indicate a relative change in air pressure up or down from the previous measurement. New pressure measurements are compared to previously recorded pressure measurements. The pressure change is expressed by the difference between the current ("0h") and the past readings in divisions of ±0.06 inHg or ±2 hPa. If the bars are rising from left to right, this indicates that the weather is getting better due to an increase in air pressure. If the bars are falling from left to right, this indicates that the weather is expected to get worse due to a drop in air pressure. At every full hour, the current air pressure is used as a basis for the display of a new graph bar. The existing graph is then moved one column to the left. Note: For accurate barometric pressure trend, the Weather Center should operate at the same altitude. Should the unit be moved, for instance from the ground to the second floor of the house, the readings for the next 48-60 hours shall be discarded. Note: The bar graph will scroll right to left regularly to prevent LCD burnout. WIND DIRECTION AND WIND SPEED MEASUREMENT xThe current wind direction is indicated by a pointer on the outer circle of the compass.
