INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of this delicate 5-in-1 professional outdoor sensor with colour display.
The wireless 5-IN-1 sensor contains a self-emptying rain collector for measuring rainfall,
anemometer, and wind vane, temperature and humidity sensors. It is fully assembled and
calibrated for your easy installation. It sends data by a low power radio frequency to the display
main unit up to 150m away (line of sight).
The colourful display main unit displays all the weather data received from the 5-IN-1 sensor
outside. It remembers the data for a time range for you to monitor and analyze the weather status
for past 24 hours. It has advance features such as the HI / LO Alert alarm which will alert the user
when the set high or low weather criteria are met. The barometric pressure records are computed
to give users forthcoming weather forecast and stormy warning. Day and date stamps are also
provided to the corresponding maximum and minimum records for each weather details.
The system also analyzes the records for your convenient viewing, such as the display of rainfall
in terms of rain rate, daily, weekly and monthly records, whereas wind-speed in different levels.
Different useful readings such as Wind-chill, Heat Index, Dew-point, Comfort level are also
provided.
With Radio-controlled / Atomic clock feature built-in, the system is truly a remarkable personal
Professional Weather Station for your own backyard.

INSTALLATION
WIRELESS 5-IN-1 SENSOR
Your wireless 5-IN-1 sensor measures wind speed, wind direction, rainfall, temperature and humidity for you.
It’s fully assembled and calibrated for your easy installation.
BATTERY AND INSTALLATION
Unscrew the battery door at bottom of unit and insert the batteries
according to the +/- polarity indicated.
Screw the battery door compartment on tightly.
Note:
1. Ensure the water tight O-ring is properly aligned in place to
ensure water resistant.
2. The red LED will begin ashing every 12 seconds.
Install the wireless 5-IN-1 sensor in
an open location with no obstructions
above and around the sensor for
accurate rain and wind measurement.
Install the sensor with the smaller end
facing the North to properly orient the
wind direction vane.
Secure the mounting stand and bracket
(included) to a post or pole, and allow
minimum 1.5m off the ground.
Points to
NORTH
1.5 meter off
the ground
MOUNTING GUIDELINES
1. Install the wireless 5-IN-1 sensor at least 1.5m off the ground for better and more accurate wind
measurements.
2. Choose an open area within 150 meters from the LCD display Main Unit.
3. Install the wireless 5-IN-1 sensor as level as possible to achieve accurate rain and wind measurements.
4. Mount the wireless 5-IN-1 sensor with the wind meter end pointing to the North to correctly orient direction
of the wind vane.
