1.1 Radio Control Clock (RCC)
RCC has the most accurate time within the continent. This unit receives the time signal
transmitted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) which is regulated
by 3 atomic clocks and in average deviates less than 1 second in 3000 years.
NIST transmits the time signal (WWVB, 60kHz) continuously from Fort Collins, Colorado. This
signal can be received in the USA and parts of Canada, however some environmental effects
may affect the transmitting distance.
For more information please see www.boulder.nist.gov/timefreq/

3.2 BIOS Atmosphere 2.0 sensor
The remote sensor should be securely mounted onto a horizontal surface.
NOTE: Transmission between the receiver and transmitter can reach up to 80m in an open area
without any interfering obstacles such as buildings, trees, vehicles, high voltage lines, etc.

NOTE: The remote sensor should be placed in a shaded area for accurate readings.
3.4 Mounting and Setup for the Wind Sensor
First, choose whether the wind sensor will be mounted vertically or horizontally (on a mast).
Make sure that you position the wind sensor in a free, open area that is not protected by
objects, which may distort or interfere with the wind (e.g. large buildings, trees, chimney,
etc.).
NOTE: The following contents have been included with your BIOS Atmosphere 2.0 for
mounting the wind sensor:

Cable Preparation for Vertical Mounting
1. Run the cable that is already fastened to the wind
sensor through the vertical joining section (see
right).
2. Run the cable through the extension pole but do not
secure the pole to any sections yet.
3. Now run the cable through the top of the basebracket and then through the small rectangular
section found on one side of the base-bracket.
NOTE: Make sure that you completely pull the cable
through the wind sensors extension pole and basebracket to reduce the amount of slack on the cord.
Vertical Mount
1. Make sure that the wind vane can rotate freely
before fastening the unit permanently into position.
2. Insert one end of the extension pole provided into
the base-bracket.
3. Secure the connection point of the extension pole
and base-bracket using the 0.25” metal screws
provided to prevent rotation at the joining point.
(Use 4 x 0.25” screws to ensure stability).
4. Insert the vertical joining section on the bottom of the wind sensor into the top of the
extension pole. (Ensure that you pull all cable slack through the side of the base-bracket
to prevent creasing or cutting the cable).
5. Secure the wind sensor to the extension pole using the 0.25” screws provided to make
sure that the pole connection does not rotate. (Use 4 x 2.75” screws to ensure stability).
IMPORTANT: For accurate readings, it is important to mount the wind sensor so that the

NOTE: Make sure that when you are securing the base bracket with the 2.75” screws, you
are aware of the cable. Prevent driving a screw through the cable!
NOTE: For proper wind speed measurement ensure the vertical joining section is at 90Âş the
horizon
(Fig.A).
Horizontal Mounting
Cable Preparation for Horizontal Mounting
1. Run the cable that is already fastened to the wind sensor through the horizontal joining
section (see below).
2. Run the cable through the extension pole but do not secure the pole to any sections yet.
3. Now run the cable through the top of the base-bracket and then through the small
rectangular section found on one side of the base-bracket.
NOTE: Make sure that you completely pull the cable through the wind sensor’s extension pole
and base-bracket to reduce the amount of slack on the cord.
Horizontal mount - using a mast/antenna/pole
NOTE: It is not recommended to secure the wind sensor horizontally from a wall or chimney

MOUNT WITH “N” FACING NORTH:
~     X      Y  N” (north) on
the casing is facing the correct direction (north). If necessary, use a standard compass to
determine north.
1. Make sure that the wind vane can rotate freely before fastening the unit permanently.
2. Using the 2 x U-bolts, 4 x nuts and 4 x washers, secure the base-bracket of the wind
sensor to a stable mast/antenna/pole. (Masts made of magnetic materials, such as lead or
other dense metals will cause faulty readings).
IMPORTANT: Make sure that the pole insert of the base-bracket is facing north (N) and pilot
holes are on the top AND bottom.
3. Use the extension pole provided to distance the wind sensor from the stable mast/
antenna/pole. Insert one end of the extension pole into the base-bracket.
4. Secure the connection point of the pole extension and base-bracket using the 0.25” screws
provided to prevent rotation at joining point. (Use the 4 x 0.25” screws to ensure stability).
5. Insert the pole extension into the horizontal joining section. (Ensure that you pull all cable
slack through the side of the base-bracket to prevent creasing or cutting the cable).
6. Secure the horizontal joining section to the mount pole using the 0.25” screws provided to
make sure that the pole connections does not rotate.
