Note: We suggest you assemble all components of the weather station,
including console in one location so you can easily test
functionality. After testing, place the outdoor sensor package in
the desired location. Note, however, that movement during
assembly, and movement after assembly can cause the rain
sensor to “falsely” register rain. It is therefore best if you do not
connect the console to any Internet services until you have reset
these false readings using the console. The errant values may be
hard to remove from Internet services if you do not reset first.
