11. Preparing the wind gauge and
rain gauge and registering on
the weather station
11.1 Calibrating the wind gauge
The wind gauge must be recalibrated when using it
for the first time as well as every time the battery is
replaced. Follow the procedure outlined below:
– Before inserting the battery, point the vane north.
– Be sure the wind wheel and vane are not turning.
– Insert the batteries, ensuring correct polarity
(see the instructions listed under Point 9. Inserting
and replacing batteries / Wind gauge).
– The transmission signal LED lights up briefly.
The wind gauge is now calibrated.

11.3 Automatic wind gauge and
rain gauge registration on
the weather station
After inserting batteries in the wind gauge and the
rain gauge, insert batteries in the weather station
(see the instructions listed under Point 9. Inserting
and replacing batteries / Weather station).
The weather station searches automatically for the
transmission signals from the wind gauge and rain
gauge. The process takes approx. 4 minutes.
11.4 Manual wind gauge and rain
gauge registration on the
MAST
weather station
After the batteries have been replaced in the wind
gauge and rain gauges, they must be registered
again on the weather station. After replacing the
batteries and calibrating the wind gauge, press the
CHANNEL / SEARCH button on the weather station
for approx. 5 seconds. The entry is confirmed with
a confirmation tone. The measurement value dis-
plays now flash on the wind gauge and rain gauge
displays. The process can take up to 4 minutes
