M OUNTING THE I NTEGRATED S ENSOR S UITE
The anemometer and the rain collector side of your ISS can be mounted either
together
as a unit on a pole, or separately.
40' (12 m) of sensor cable has been provided with the anemometer so you can
flexibly configure your system to monitor wind conditions. For example, you
could mount the anemometer at the highest point of a roof, then place the rain
collector side on a fence closer to ground level.
When mounting sides separately, you can mount each one either on a pole or
on a flat vertical surface such as a wooden post. Hardware is included for both
options: use the U-bolts to mount on a pole, and the lag screws to mount on a
vertical surface.
If the rain collector cone is latched into the base of the rain collector side,
remove it now. If it isn’t, do not put it on just yet! With the cone in the way you
will not have room to use the mounting hardware.
