Installing the Rain Collector II

If the rainfall amount displayed on the console increases by the expected
increment (either 0.01" or 0.2 mm) each time you tip the bucket, your rain
collector is working properly. If the display changes only after you tip the
bucket several times, the rain collector may be functioning correctly but you
may have an older version of the station console. See “Calibration of Older
Model Weather Stations” on page
10 for details.
