AcuRite 00896 Rain Gauge - Manual (Page 3)

Before Getting Start
Getting Started (Power reset procedure)
1. Please make sure batteries are inserted into the indoor rain monitor first
and the display appears. The unit will go into “sync mode” for 6 minutes.
2. Insert batteries in the outdoor rain gauge transmitter.
3. In the “sync mode” the indoor rain monitor will receive the outdoor
transmission signal within 6 minutes.
4. At the synchronization period, the antenna wave icon will keep blinking on
the rain monitor display.
5. When the antenna wave icon stops blinking and remains on the display, this
means synchronization has occurred and the main unit has gotten the signal
from the transmitter unit.
6. Once the synchronization has occurred, the indoor rain monitor will detect
updated rainfall information from the transmitter every minute
automatically.
7. If the antenna wave icon does not appear on the display after the 6 minutes
synchronization period, it means synchronization has failed.
8. Indoor rain monitor will start synchronization again after 2 minutes until
synchronization successful.
During the synchronization period, press any key to stop the synchronization
procedure.
