Determine where you are going to locate both the
rooftop sensor and the read-out.
Feed the terminal lug end of the 2-conductor cable through
the rubber boot and connect the lugs to the terminals on the bottom
of the wind speed sensor. (Do NOT adjust the nuts that are already
on the sensor). The polarity does not matter.
Slide the stub mast through the rubber boot and insert the stub mast
into the bottom of the wind speed sensor. Secure with the cotter pin.
Coat all conections with silicone sealant and slip the boot over the sensor.
Secure the sensor and the stub mast to your antenna
mast (not supplied) with the two hose clamps. Radio
Shack and similar stores have a selection of antenna
masts and roof mounting brackets. Choose a mount that best
suits your location and provides at least eight feet of vertical
clearance above objects on the roof.
Feed the cable through the wall to where the read-out is
going to be located. Attach the wires to the rear of the
read-out as shown. (Do NOT adjust the nuts that are
already on the meter). The polarity does not matter.
The Sirocco read-out is free standing. It can also be mounted
on a wall using the key hole cut outs in the back of the instrument's
wood block.
Secure the wire to the building using
cable clips (do not use regular staples).
Form a drip loop where wire enters hole
drilled through the exterior wall.
Caulk the hole when done.
Follow the instructions supplied with the antenna
mount and secure the mast to the mount.
