1. All sensors should be ready for the setup process. First, insert batteries to the Rain sensor, and then switch on the Solar Wind sensor by pressing its RESET button. Finally, insert batteries to the Thermo-Hygro sensor. IMPORTANT! Make sure the correct polarity when inserting batteries. Inserting the batteries incorrectly may result in permanent damage to the units. Only use alkaline batteries, rechargeable batteries may not work. 2. Insert batteries into the Weather Station, e.g. the model WS-2812U-IT. Note: During the setup process, place the wireless display and the TX- TX-63U 63U-IT outdoor sensors on a surface with 3-10 feet between the sensors and the display. SOLAR WIND SENSOR 3. The Weather Station receives data from the Thermo-Hygro sensor. The The TX63U-IT Solar Wind sensor is used in conjunction with the TX59U-IT relay collected information should be displayed on the Weather Station, transmitter to gather and transmit information to the wireless Weather Station including the outdoor temperature, humidity, rainfall, wind-chill and wind- (e.g. WS-2812U-IT). speed and wind-direction. Note: Every time the Weather Station receives data from the sensors, the wireless icons will blink once and then return to solid if the last INVENTORY OF CONTENTS transmission was successful. A wind speed or rainfall amount that reads 1. TX-63U-IT Solar Wind sensor "0" does not mean reception failure, it means that there was no wind or 2.

Mounting hardware Remove the batteries from all units for 1 minute and start again from step 5. Instruction manual 1. 4. You may then check all components for correct function by manually TX63U-IT turning the wind-gauge, moving the weather-vane, tilting the rain sensor to Wind vane hear the impact of the internally moving seesaw, etc. 5. Time and date shall be manually set for the Weather Station. 6. After the Weather Station has been checked for correct function with regard to the above points, the initial set up of the wireless weather system is finished and the mounting of the system components can take Solar Panel place. Note: The Weather Station and the Thermo-Hygro sensor should be set Wind cup within the reception distance (up to 200 feet / 60 meters in open space). The Thermo-Hygro sensor and the Rain sensor should be set within the START THE SOLAR WIND SENSOR reception distance (up to 200 feet / 60 meters in open space). The During the first time of operation, user has to remove the mask that covered on Thermo-Hygro sensor and the Solar wind sensor should be set within the the solar panel then gently press the RESET button once in the bottom of the reception distance (up to 330 feet / 100 meters in open space). The Rain device by the provided Plastic reset rod sensor and the Solar Wind sensor should be mounted on the same side of to wake it up. the house provided there are no interfering obstacles such as buildings, RESET trees, vehicles, high voltage lines, Ham radio antennae, etc. Radio Note: It is important to allow sufficient button interferences created by PC screens, cordless phones, radios or TV sets light to reach the solar panel while can in some cases entirely cut off radio communication. Please take this activating the Solar Wind sensor. Make into consideration when choosing standing or mounting locations. sure the lights are on in the setup room Detailed setup procedures of the wireless weather system, refer to the and the solar panel is facing a 60W main operation manual of the Weather Station. light bulb or brighter – do not cover with hands or other objects. Bottom of the Solar Wind sensor MOUNTING The Solar Wind sensor must be installed with the solar panel facing true South, IDLE MODE or the reported wind direction will not be accurate. This device should be This mode aims to reduce power consumption of the transmitter. Under this mounted within the reception distance (up to 330 feet / 100 meters in open mode, the sensor stops the transmission of signal, checks the battery voltage space) of the Thermo-Hygro sensor and on the same side of the house. Mount and detects the solar cell condition. The IDLE mode happens if the battery at least 3 feet above the roofline of your house. Please be sure there is clear voltage is low. area in every direction from buildings, trees, hills etc. Note: The sensor will check and charge up the internal rechargeable battery automatically, when it detects the battery voltage raises up to sufficiently high Mount the wind sensor onto a mast so the wind can reach the sensor enough, the transmission of signal starts again. unobstructed from all directions for an accurate reading. The ideal mast is between 0.62” and 1.3” in diameter. Secure the main unit to the shaft of the mast holder. Use the right-angle adapter if the wind sensor will be mounted on a STOP MODE horizontal mast or surface. It is the most energy saving mode. Under this mode, the transmitter stops the transmission of signal, no checking battery voltage, no detecting the solar cell The remote wind speed sensor can be mounted two ways: condition and force it stop charge batteries. The STOP mode happens: • Using nylon straps • If the user covers the solar cell for 10 seconds and presses the RESET • With the use of screws button. Note: To restart the Solar Wind sensor, user should place the sensor in a bright environment then press the RESET button once to wake it up again. Vertical mast • If the sensor is placed in the dark environment for 72 hours. Right-angle Note: To restart the Solar Wind sensor, user should move the wind cup or adapter place the sensor in a bright environment then press the RESET button once to wake it up again. Fixed with Fixed with IMPORTANT! During the restart process, if the battery voltage is sufficiently screw Nylon strap high enough, the transmission of signal starts again. However, if the battery voltage is low, the sensor enters into IDLE mode. User should place the sensor under a bright environment in order to charge up the rechargeable batteries inside the sensor. MOUNTING WITH NYLON STRAPS 1. Place two nylon straps through the slots on the mounting bracket. 2. Place the Solar Wind sensor in your desired location. SETTING UP 3. Fasten the two nylon straps securely around the mounting location. Follow the setup process below to make sure this device can work properly with 4. Slide the Solar Wind sensor onto the bracket making sure to lock it in the wireless weather system: place. MOUNTING WITH SCREWS 1. Place the mounting bracket over the desired location. 2. Through the two screw holes of the bracket, mark the mounting surface with a pencil. 330 foot 3. Screw the mounting bracket and right-angle adapter onto the mounting Range surface. Ensure that the screws are tight against the bracket, but do not over-tighten the screws, or the mast holder may break. 4. Slide the Solar Wind sensor onto the bracket. Make sure to lock it in place. 1
