2 Warnings and Cautions

Warning:

Any metal object may attract a lightning strike, including your

weather station mounting pole. Never install the weather station

in a storm.

If you are mounting the weather station to a house or structure,

consult a licensed electrician for proper grounding. A direct

lightning strike to a metal pole can damage or destroy your home.

Installing your weather station in a high location may result in

injury or death. Perform as much of the initial check out and

operation on the ground and inside a building or home. Only

install the weather station on a clear, dry, day.

3 Unpacking

Open your weather station box and inspect that the contents are intact

(nothing broken) and complete (nothing missing). Inside you should find

the following:

Item Description

Outdoor Sensor Body with built-in: Thermo-hygrometer / Rain

Gauge / Wind Speed Sensor/ Wind Direction Sensor, Light and UV

sensor, Solar panel

Wind speed cups (to be attached to outdoor sensor body)

Wind vane (to be attached to outdoor sensor body)

U-Bolts for mounting on a pole

Threaded nuts for U-Bolts (M6 size)

Metal mounting plate to be used with U-Bolts

Wrench for M6 bolts

User manual (this manual)

Table 1: Package content

If components are missing from the package, or broken, please contact

customer service to resolve the issue.

Note: Batteries for the outdoor sensor package are not included. You

will need 2 AA size batteries, alkaline or Lithium batteries

(Lithium recommended for colder climates).

4 Features

Measures outdoor temperature and humidity wind direction, rainfall,

wind speed, wind gust, UV & light, Solar light intensity and UV

index data.

No display, need to work with the WIFI gateway to complete the

WIFI configuration on our WS View Plus/ Ecowitt App.

After the WIFI configuration, the live weather data can be viewed

directly on the WS View Plus/ Ecowitt App.

Supports uploads to WU/Weather Cloud/WOW. The history graph

of your WU station ID can be viewed on the WU Dashboard on the

WS View Plus/ Ecowitt App.

Works with WS2910/HP2551/HP3500/WS2320/HP2561/HP3501

Weather Station display console(sold separately). The outdoor

sensor and display console should be at the same frequency.

5 Set up Guide

5.1 Pre Installation Checkout

To complete assembly you will need a Philips screwdriver (size PH0) and

a wrench (size M6; included in package).

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.

Attention:

Follow suggested order for battery installation (outdoor sensor first,

console second)

Ensure batteries are installed with correct polarity (+/-)

Do not mix old and new batteries

Do not use rechargeable batteries

If outdoor temperature may go below 32F or 0C for prolonged

periods, Lithium based batteries are suggested over alkaline type

batteries for the outdoor sensor array

5.2 Site Survey

Perform a site survey before installing the weather station. Consider the

following:

1. You must clean the rain gauge every few months and change the

batteries every 2-3 years. Provide easy access to the weather

station.

2. Avoid radiant heat transfer from buildings and structures. In

general, install the sensor array at least 5’ or 1.52m from any

building, structure, ground, or roof top.

3. Avoid wind and rain obstructions. The rule of thumb is to install

the sensor array at least four times the distance of the height of

the tallest obstruction. For example, if the building is 20’ or

6.10m tall and the mounting pole is 6’ or 1.83m tall, install the

sensor array 4 x (20 – 6)’ = 56’ or 4 x (6.1-1.83)=17.08m away.

4. Mount the sensor array in direct sunlight for accurate temperature

readings.

5. Installing the weather station over sprinkler systems or other

unnatural vegetation may affect temperature and humidity

readings. We suggest mounting the sensor array over natural

vegetation.

6. Wireless Range. Radio communication between receiver and

transmitter in an open field can reach a distance of up to 330 feet

or 100 meter, providing there are no interfering obstacles such as

buildings, trees, vehicles and high voltage lines. Wireless

signals will not penetrate metal buildings. Under most

conditions, the maximum wireless range is 100’ or 30m.

7. Radio Interference. Computers, radios, televisions and other

sources can interfere with radio communications between the

sensor array and console. Please take this into consideration

when choosing console or mounting locations. Make sure your

display console is at least five feet or 1.52 meter away from any

electronic device to avoid interference.

Table 2: Sensor assembly detailed items

5.3.1 Install U-bolts and metal plate

Installation of the U-bolts, which are in turn used to mount the sensor

package on a pole, requires installation of an included metal plate to

receive the U-bolt ends. The metal plate, visible in Figure 2 on the right

side, has four holes through which the ends of the two U-Bolts will fit.

The plate itself is inserted in a groove on the bottom of the unit (opposite

side of solar panel). Note that one side of the plate has a straight edge

(which goes into the groove), the other side is bent at a 90-degree angle

and has a curved profile (which will end up “hugging” the mounting

pole). Once the metal plate is inserted, remove nuts from the U-Bolts and

insert both U-bolts through the respective holes of the metal plate as

shown in Figure 2.

Figure 2: U-Bolt installation

Loosely screw on the nuts on the ends of the U-bolts. You will tighten

these later during final mounting. Final assembly is shown in Figure 3.

Figure 3: U-Bolts and nuts installed

The plate and U-Bolts are not yet needed at this stage but doing this now

may help avoid damaging wind vane and wind speed cups later on.

Handling of the sensor package with wind vane and speed cups installed

to install these bolts is more difficult and more likely to lead to damage.
