  • DAVIS Vantage Pro2, Locating the ISS and Anemometer 16 General ISS Siting Guidelines • Place the ISS away from sources of heat such as chimneys, heaters, air conditioners and exhaust vents. • Place the ISS at least 100' (30 m) away from any asphalt or concrete roadway that readily absorbs and radiates heat in the sun. Avoid installations near fences or sides of buildings that receive a lot of sun during the day. • Ideally, place the radiation shield of the ISS 5' (1.5 m) above the ground in the mid- dle of gently sloping or flat, regularly mowed grassy or naturally landscaped area that drains well when it rains. For areas with average maximum yearly snow depths over 3&apos

  • DAVIS Vantage Pro2, 19 Installing the ISS The anemometer and the main part of the ISS can be installed either together as a single unit on a pole, or apart from each other. The main part of the ISS includes the rain collector, the temperature and humidity sensors, the radiation shield, and the SIM housing. Use the U-bolts to install the ISS and anemometer together or separately on a pole. Use the lag screws to install them separately on a flat, vertical surface. • The anemometer comes with a 40' (12 m) cable for flexibility in configuring the sys- tem to monitor wind conditions. For example, the ane

On your console screen, look for the DAILY RAIN display. If the console is cabled to the ISS, reconnect the cable and see if the console is receiving rain readings. 4. While watching the daily rain display, tip the bucket until it drops to the opposite side, then wait to see if the display registers a rain reading. Each tip indicates 0.01" or 0.2 mm of rain and may take up to a minute to register at the console. If the bucket is tipped too quickly,

  • DAVIS Vantage Pro2, Preparing the ISS for Installation 2 Note: If the ISS is a Plus model and contains UV and solar sensors, do not touch the small white diffusers on top of the sensors. Oil from skin reduces their sensitivity. If you are concerned that you have touched the diffusers at any time during the installation, clean the UV diffuser using ethyl alcohol with a soft cloth. When cleaning the UV diffuser, DO NOT use rubbing or denatured alcohols because they can affect accuracy of the sensor readings. Ethyl alcohol can be procured through an industrial or laboratory suppl
