Sample Installation With Console and Mounting Pole on a Fence or Post
1. Mount the ISS and desired shelter, if not already mounted.
Refer to the ISS weather station or other weather station installation
manual for instructions. If you are mounting the station on a fence, make
sure the steel tube is on the side of the fence that receives the most sun
(i.e., the southern side in the Northern Hemisphere or the northern side in
the Southern Hemisphere).
2. Loosen the screws and saddles that hold the steel tube to the post.
Loosen the screws enough to allow the steel tube to sit about 1/16” away
from the wall so that the brace clamp (for the solar power kit arm) has
room to clasp around the tube.
3. Identify where you want to position the solar power kit before you install
it. For additional structural support, rest the arm on the lower mounting
pole saddle or tripod collar.
4. Attach the brace clamp loosely to the mounting pole and insert the arm.
