Placement for Maximum Accuracy
AcuRite sensors are sensitive to surrounding environmental conditions. Proper
placement of both the display and the sensor are critical to the accuracy and
performance of this product.
Display Placement
Place the display in a dry area free of dirt and dust. To ensure
accurate temperature measurement, place out of direct sunlight
and away from heat sources or vents. Display stands upright for
tabletop use or is wall-mountable.
5-in-1 Sensor Placement
The 5-in-1 sensor is designed to remain outdoors all year long.
Choose an open location with no obstructions above or around
the sensor for the most accurate measurements.
Important Placement Guidelines
Display and sensor must be within 330 ft (100 meters) of each other.
MAXIMIZE WIRELESS RANGE
Place units away from large metallic items, thick walls, metal surfaces, or other
objects that may limit wireless communication.
PREVENT WIRELESS INTERFERENCE
Place both units at least 3 ft (0.9 meters) away from electronic devices (TV,
computer, microwave, radio, etc.).
LOCATE AWAY FROM HEAT SOURCES
Position sensor away from heaters, air conditioners, chimneys, exhaust vents,
asphalt and concrete (surfaces that radiate heat).
LOCATE AWAY FROM HUMIDITY SOURCES
Avoid installing the sensor near pools, spas, or other bodies of water. Water
sources may impact humidity accuracy.
LOCATE AWAY FROM SPRINKLER HEADS
DO NOT install the sensor where it will be sprayed by a sprinkler system. This
may force water inside the sensor.
LOCATE AWAY FROM WIND & RAIN OBSTRUCTIONS
DO NOT mount the sensor with obstructions around it.
Consider a location that is a wide open area, with few
structures around to ensure accurate wind measurement.

5-in-1 Sensor Installation Guidelines
INSTALLATION HEIGHT
Mount the sensor at a minimum height of 5 feet
(1.5 meters) off the ground, in an open area. Higher is better for wind
measurements - the National Weather Service recommends 33 feet
(10 meters) high!
MOUNTING OPTIONS
The included mounting bracket is designed to screw
directly onto wooden posts or surfaces that are 2"x 4" or larger. The sensor
can also be mounted directly to 3/4" steel pipe (available at hardware stores
and home centers).
SOLAR CELL INSTALLATION
Install the sensor
with the solar cell facing SOUTH. This ensures
the cell receives as much sun as possible and
orients wind direction.

5-in-1 Sensor Installation

1. Fasten mounting base (included) to a post
or pole (not included) using the 4 longer
screws included in the hardware bag.
2. Insert the mounting base into the hole on
the bottom of the sensor.
3. Make sure the arrows on the top of the
sensor are pointed in the proper direction
and the bubble level is centered. The
solar cell should be facing south to
properly orient the wind direction.
4. Fasten the sensor into the mounting base
using the 2 shorter screws included in the
hardware bag.
The 5-in-1 sensor is now ready to use.
Clear Data Collected During Installation
When installation is complete, clear erroneous data from the display by
pressing and HOLDING the "Reset" button on the back of the display inside
the battery compartment. This button will clear all records.
Basic Setup is Complete
The 5-in-1 sensor will now synchronize with the display. It may take a few
minutes for synchronization to complete. If both or one of the units appear to
be functioning improperly, please refer to the troubleshooting section.
