4. Preparation
Note:
Before you assemble the combi sensor at its location, test whether there is a sufficient radio
connection between the combi sensor and the base station all day.Avoid the influence of buildings,
trees etc., e.g. due to their own temperature radiation (distance from walls, roofs etc. at least 1.52
m), shading or location in areas protected from wind or rain and from irrigation systems etc.
As a rule for the distance to buildings: distance = 4x (building height minus mounting height of the
sensor).
Free field distance (line of sight) 100 m max.!
For the first start-up, place the combi sensor and the base station in a room at least 3 m apart in
order to achieve a first secure synchronization. When inserting the batteries or connecting the power
supply, follow the following sequence: first insert the batteries in the combi sensor,then connect the
power supply to the base station.
Please note the information on lightning protection and occupational safety in chapter 2!
Mount mast clamps
- Insert the supplied mast clamps into the carrier plate at the underside of the sensor and fix the
mast clampswith the bolts.Performthis step at the beginningof the assemblyto avoid problems

- Placethe wind vane on the boom and tighten the locking screw. The four main wind directions are
marked here. Place the wind vane in accordance with these markings, so that the tip points in the
direction of the embossed north marking. Do not attach the wind vane by force. The axis contains
a flat area that must corres ond to the flattenin
