Sensor Operation Verification
The following steps verify proper operation of the sensors prior to installing the sensor array.
1. Verify proper operation of the rain gauge. Tip the sensor array back and forth several times. You should
hear a “clicking” sound within the rain gauge. Verify the rain reading on the display console is not reading
0.00. Each “click” represents 0.3mm of rainfall.
2. Verify proper operation of the wind speed sensor. Rotate the wind cups manually or with a constant
speed fan. Verify the wind speed is not reading 0.0.
3. Verify proper operation of the indoor and outdoor temperature sensors. Verify the indoor and outdoor
temperature readings match closely with the console and sensor array in the same location (about 3m apart).
The sensors should be within 2°C (the accuracy is ±1°C). Allow about 30 minutes for both sensors to stabilise.
