6.8 Mount outdoor sensor
Before proceeding with the outdoor sensor mounting detailed in this section, you need to make
sure the display can receive data from outdoor sensor, while you keep the assembled outdoor
sensor package nearby (although preferably not closer than 1.5 m from the display). This will
make any troubleshooting and adjustments easier and avoids any distance or interference related
issues from the system.
After setup is complete and everything is working, return here for outdoor sensor mounting. If
issues show up after outdoor sensor mounting, they are almost certainly related to distance,
obstacles etc.
As you can see in the next picture, the mounting assembly includes two U-bolts and a bracket
that tightens around a 1 to 2” diameter pole (not included) using the four U-bolt nuts.
Note
Next to the antenna, there is an arrow icon with ”WEST” written below it (next picture),
representing the direction of north. The sensor body has to be adjusted so that the “WEST”
indication faces the real north direction in your location. A compass device is recommended to
help adjust the direction. A permanent wind direction error will occur when the outdoor sensor is
not installed in the right direction.
