Discussion: The rain collector is calibrated at the factory
based on the funnel diameter. The bucket tips every 0.01” of
rain (referred to as resolution). The accumulated rainfall can
be compared to a sight glass rain gauge with an aperture of at
least 4”.
Note: that debris and insects can collect inside the tipping
mechanism (they make a good spiders nest). Carefully remove
the funnel and inspect the tipping mechanism for debris prior
to calibration.
Sunlight Calibration
In the calibration mode, press the SET button again and the
sunlight value will flash (the default is 1.00).
Press the CHANNEL/+ key or MAX/MIN/- key to adjust the
sunlight calibration factor from 0.75 to 1.25, where:
Calibrated Sunlight = Calibration factor x Measured Sunlight
Press and hold the CHANNEL/+ or MAX/MIN/- key for three
seconds to increase or decrease rapidly.
Press the ALARM key to reset current value.
To exit the Sensor calibration mode at any time, press the
SNOOZE/LIGHT button on the top of the display console. If no
operation is performed, the calibration mode will timeout in 30
seconds.
