Getting started
Pre-installation checkout
- Before installing the weather station, it is recommended that you set up the display console and multisensor with all components ready to ensure proper operation.
- Insert the batteries into the display console first and then into the multisensor.
Site survey
Perform a survey of the site before installation. Consider the following:
- Maintenance access. Regularly clean the rain gauge and swap batteries every 2−3 years. Ensure easy access to the weather station.
- Radiant heat from buildings and structures. Install the multisensor at least 1.5m from any buildings, structures, ground, or rooftops.
- Rain and wind obstructions. For precise measurements of wind and rain, install the multisensor at a height at least 4 times that of the nearest obstacle. For example, if the building is 6m tall, and the mounting pole is 2m tall, the sensors should be installed at a height of at least 16m (4 х (6 − 2)).
- Wireless range. The optimal distance between the receiver and the transmitter is up to 100m in an open space. With obstacles in the way (buildings, trees, etc.), the maximum distance is 30m.
- Radio interference from computers, radios, or TVs. Install the display console at least 1.5m away from electronic devices to minimize interference.
Sensor setup
Installing U-bolts and the mounting pole
- Install the included metal plates to secure the U-bolts (8) to the mounting post. The metal plate is inserted into the groove on the bottom of the device (opposite side from the solar panel (6)). One side of the plate has a straight edge (inserted into the groove), the other side is bent at a 90-degree angle and has a curved profile that wraps around the mounting pole.
- After inserting the metal plate, remove the nuts from the U-bolts and insert both bolts into the corresponding holes in the plate.
- Screw the nuts onto the ends of the U-bolts. Make sure to tighten them completely during final mounting.
Wind vane installation
Slide the wind vane (2) onto the shaft at the bottom of the sensor until it
stops. Tighten the fastening screw with a screwdriver (size PH0) until the
wind vane is securely fastened to the axle.
Wind speed sensor installation
Place the wind speed sensor (1) onto the shaft. Tighten the fastening screw.
Make sure the wind speed sensor spins freely.
Batteries installation
Insert 2 AA batteries into the battery compartment (8). The LED indicator (10)
on the back of the transmitter blinks every 16 seconds (sensor data
transmission refresh period).
ATTENTION! If the LED does not light up or stays on, make sure the
batteries are inserted properly and the device is reset correctly. Incorrect
installation of batteries may cause permanent damage to the outdoor sensor.
ATTENTION! Alkaline batteries are suitable for most climates, but 1.5V
lithium batteries are recommended in cold climates. Rechargeable batteries are
not recommended due to their low voltage, instability over a wide temperature
range, and short service life, which results in poor signal reception.
Mounting the assembled multisensor
- Attach the multisensor to the prepared 2.5−5cm diameter pipe using U-bolts and a bracket.
- Align the multisensor in the west direction by rotating it on the mounting pipe. The WEST arrow, located at the top of the multisensor next to the antenna (7), should point due west. Use a compass for fine adjustments.
ATTENTION! Check with the bubble level (5) to ensure the multisensor is
set up horizontally. The bubble must be completely inside the red circle,
otherwise the wind direction and speed, as well as the amount of
precipitation, may be measured inaccurately. If the bubble is close to the
center of the circle, but not completely inside it, and you cannot adjust the
mounting pipe, you can place small wood or heavy cardboard wedges between the
sensor and the top of the mounting post to achieve the desired result (this
will require loosening the bolts and some experimentation).
Then, make sure the arrow still points due west and tighten the bolts.
Reset button and transmitter LED
If the multisensor is not transmitting data, perform a reset. Press and hold RESET for 3 seconds. The LED will remain on while RESET is pressed and then return to normal operation (flashing every 16 seconds).
Recommendations for improving wireless connectivity
To avoid radio frequency interference, we recommend that you adhere to the following conditions.
- Place the console several meters away from computer monitors and TVs.
- If you have devices on the 433MHz frequency and are experiencing intermittent connectivity, please unplug them to troubleshoot.
- The maximum range of the device is 100m without, and 30m with obstacles.
- The radio signal does not pass through metal. With metal siding, place the sensor and console so that there is a window between them.

If there are multiple messages, they will change every 5 seconds, or you can click (Up) or (Down) to manually switch to a different message. When an alert is triggered, a corresponding message will be displayed here.
Time and date
This segment displays the current time and date. When connected to Wi-Fi, the
time will be synchronized with Internet time (UTC). If there is a symbol in
this segment, it displays the current time and date. When connected to Wi-Fi,
the time will be synchronized with Internet time (UTC). If there is a symbol
in this segment of the screen, the information panel displays the following
data: year and day of the week, time the alert was triggered and its status
(ON/OFF), moon phase.
Solar irradiance and UV index
- The solar irradiance index (left) represents the total intensity of sunlight, the theoretical maximum of which varies depending on location and time of year. The actual value also depends on atmospheric conditions (clouds, humidity, etc.) and changes throughout the day.
- The UV Index (right) is a value that indicates the strength of harmful UV radiation.
- If there is a symbol in this segment, the message panel displays the following time-stamped data: the maximum light intensity for the day, the maximum light intensity since the last reset, the maximum UV index for the day, the maximum UV index since the last reset.
Indoor temperature and humidity

location. If there is a symbol in this segment, the message panel displays the
following time-stamped data: maximum and minimum indoor temperature for the
current day, maximum and minimum indoor temperature since the last reset,
maximum and minimum indoor humidity for the current day, maximum and minimum
indoor humidity since the last reset.
Outdoor temperature and humidity
This segment displays the current outdoor temperature and humidity at the
multisensor location. If there is a symbol in this segment, the message panel
displays the same data as the previous segment, but for the outdoor
conditions.
Barometric pressure
- This segment displays the current barometric pressure, historical pressure graph and weather forecast icon. If there is a symbol in this segment, press SET to switch between absolute (ABS) and relative (REL) pressure. Absolute pressure is the pressure measured at the height of your console from sea level. Relative pressure is a measure of absolute pressure corrected to the reading at sea level altitude. Relative pressure is usually published by official weather stations.
- Below is the historical chart. This graph can be configured to show 12- or 24-hour history. Falling pressure readings usually indicate worsening weather, while rising pressure readings usually indicate improving weather conditions.
- Below is a pictogram weather forecast for the next 12 hours. If there is a symbol in this segment, the message panel displays the following time-stamped data: the maximum and minimum relative atmospheric pressure for the current day, the maximum and minimum relative atmospheric pressure since the last reset, the maximum and minimum absolute atmospheric pressure for the current day, the maximum and minimum absolute atmospheric pressure since the last reset.
Wind and wind gusts speed
-
In this segment, there are two arrows inside the round wind rose (if they overlap, only one will be visible). The thicker arrow indicates the wind direction measured over the last 16 seconds. The thinner arrow represents the average wind direction over the previous 16-second interval, which allows you to evaluate changes in wind direction.
-
If there is a symbol in this segment, pressing SET will display wind speed, wind gusts and wind direction
in degrees. -
If there is a symbol in this segment, the message panel displays the following time-stamped data: maximum wind speed for the current day, maximum wind speed since the last reset, maximum wind gust speed for the current day, maximum wind speed since the last reset.
Wind chill index, dew point, heat index
- Press SET to switch between wind chill index, heat index (index that combines air temperature and humidity), and dew point.
- Wind chill and heat indices are values that indicate the air temperature felt by a person. The passage of air of a lower temperature creates a feeling of cold (this is called the wind chill index). At the same time, due to humidity, it may seem that the outdoor temperature is warmer than the actual temperature (this is the heat index).
- The dew point is the temperature to which the air must be cooled before the process of vapor condensing into liquid (dew) begins.
- If there is a symbol in this segment, the message panel displays the following time-stamped data: maximum and minimum indoor temperature for the current day, maximum and minimum indoor temperature since the last reset, maximum and minimum indoor humidity for the current day, maximum and minimum indoor humidity since the last reset.
Precipitation
If there is a symbol in this segment, pressing SET will display the following
data:
- Rain intensity: amount of precipitation in the last 60 minutes.
- Rain period: A period of precipitation where the rain intensity has not dropped to 0. For example, if it rains for 10 minutes, the rain event will display values for the 10-minute period. And if it rains continuously for 4.5 hours, the values will apply to the entire 4.5-hour period.
- Day : rainfall over a 24-hour period from 00:00 to 23:59.
- Week: rainfall over a 7-day period from Sunday 00:00 to Sunday 23:59.

setting for moon phase display (Northern/Southern).
Unit setup
After entering the setup mode, press (Left) to enter unit setup mode. Then
press (Right) to enter the submenu: light unit selection (lux, FC, W/m²),
temperature unit selection (°C, °F), pressure unit selection (hPa, inHg,
mmHg), wind speed unit selection (km/h, mph, knots, m/s, Beaufort rating
(bft)), precipitation unit selection (mm, inches).
Recording interval setup
- Press (Left) twice to enter recording interval setup mode. Then press (Right) to enter the submenu.
- Use (Up) and (Down) to select the desired recording.
Rainy season setup
- Press (Left) 3 times to enter the rainy season setup. Then press (Right) to enter the submenu for selecting the rainy season months. Use (Up) and (Down) to select months from January through December.
- The rainy season is the time when most of the region’s average annual rainfall occurs. The rainy season influences the maximum, minimum and total annual precipitation. When one month is selected, total annual precipitation and annual maximum/minimum precipitation are reset to zero at 00:00 on the first day of the selected month.
Pressure setup
Press (Left) 4 times to enter the barometer setup mode. Then press (Up) and
(Down) to select history display over 12 or 24 hours.
Button sound setup
Press (Left) 5 times to enter the button sound setup mode. Then press (Right)
to enter the submenu. Use (Up) and (Down) to switch between ON/OFF.
Calibration setup
- Press (Left) 6 times to enter the calibration setup mode. This function allows you to change the values received from sensors before they are displayed or recorded. Typically used to compare displayed and recorded values with data from a reference measurement or instrument. The most common example is the calibration of absolute and relative pressure.
- All calibration settings typically offer a deviation or factor/coefficient. The value recorded and displayed is calculated from the sensor value by multiplying the sensor value by a factor and then adding an offset.
- If a particular factor cannot be changed, it will be 1. This will also be the default value. The standard deviation will be 0. Often only barometric adjustments are required!
- When changing a setting, the console displays the current sensor value with an offset or factor applied, so you can determine the offset you want, find out your reference value, and change the offset until the reference value matches yours.
ATTENTION! Before making changes to the wind speed factor and precipitation factor, make sure the multisensor is installed horizontally, the wind vane can rotate freely and there is no “slip” on the axle (make sure the fixing screw is tight).
Pressure Setting Calibration
Unlike other calibration settings, where the factory setting ensures the 1.0
factors and 0 offsets are appropriate and correct for the instrument’s stated
accuracy, this is not typically done for relative barometric pressure
readings.
Absolute atmospheric pressure can be calibrated at the factory by comparison
with an accurate instrument that measures the pressure at the same location.
In practice, small adjustments of a few hPa may sometimes be necessary.
Relative pressure is what the sensor would show if the station were at sea
level. It depends on the height of your console and cannot be known in
advance. Therefore, it requires offset correction.
Calibrating Pressure Setup
- Set this setting to hectopascals (hPa) as the pressure units.
- Determine the height of your console above sea level. This can be done using GPS or this website: https://www.freemaptools.com/elevation-finder.htm.
- Add the required number of meters above ground level for your console. If you are on the ground floor and have the console on a table, you will probably need to add about 1−1.2m.
- Next, you need to determine the right deviation to be added to the absolute pressure reading to get the precise relative pressure reading. Correction tables can be found online and there are also online calculators, e.g. http://www.csgnetwork.com/barcorrecthcalc.html.
- Enter your console height and standard pressure (1013.25hPa) and click the “Calculate” button. In the Actual Barometer correction line you will find the deviation coefficient, its value will be negative (for example, −1.56). Round this coefficient to 1 decimal place and enter the same value, but with a “+” sign in the console settings (+1.6, respectively).
- Next, you need to find a reliable source of information about the relative pressure in your area. The nearest airport to you (within a radius of up to 40km) can be such a source. Find the METAR information for your nearest airport online. This data also contains information about the relative pressure at the airport.
- Make sure the console displays relative pressure and compare it with the data from the airport. If the data does not match, subtract the console reading from the airport pressure data. Then enter the resulting deviation coefficient with the opposite sign in the absolute pressure deviation settings.
- If you have an accurate barometer, place it next to the console for more precise adjustments, and then adjust the absolute pressure offset to match the readings on both instruments. Next, apply the previously calculated relative pressure deviation and further adjust it until the relative pressure at the console matches the value from the airport.
- Change the units of measurement back to ones you prefer.
Transmitter ID setup
This setting cannot be changed. This number identifies the type of outdoor
sensor from which the multisensor data was obtained. This is mainly needed for
troubleshooting.

- Press MIN/MAX to toggle between the maximum/minimum records of different weather values along with the time and date stamp.
- Each maximum/minimum value can be deleted by holding SET for 2 seconds.
History mode
- In main mode, press HISTORY. In this mode, you can view recordings in the device memory. If there are no records, the message HISTORY NONE RECORD will be displayed on the screen. If there are entries, the screen will display a message, page number (each of which holds 32 entries), date and year.
- Using (Up) and (Down) you can switch between entries. (Left) and (Right) allow you to switch between pages.
- To completely erase history, hold SET for 2 seconds.
Using memory to store readings
The console is capable of storing up to 3,552 records of historical sensor data in its internal memory. This data will be retained even if the power is turned off. You can find out how many entries have already been made using the “Memory Usage” indicator. It is located next to the moon phases and the RF (radio frequency) icon and is depicted as a circle with marks of 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% (100% indicates the circle is completely full). Once the memory is fully used, new data replaces the old entries (the circle will remain completely full).
Weather trend indicators
There are arrow symbols next to the indoor/outdoor temperature and humidity segments to indicate weather trends.
