Mount the temperature sensor assembly with the supplied #6
wood screws as shown.
Run the cable attached to the temperature sensor from the
sensors mounting location to the back of the Indicator.
Form a drip loop with the wire that extends at least 8 inches
below the exit from the sensor and at least 8 inches below the
point of entry in the building, as shown. Anchor any exposed
wire with insulated staples or cable clips being careful to avoid
puncturing the insulation.
Mount the generator (wind speed sensor) to the straight stub
mast and secure it with a cotter pin. Mount the distributor
(wind direction sensor) on the formed stub mast (“formed” in a
lazy z shape) so that the #3 terminal lies over the horizontal mast arm
as shown (see diagram). Secure the distributor to the mast with a
cotter pin.
Slip the wind senor wires through the rubber boots. Connect the wires
to sensors like you did during the trial wiring. When completed
double check your wiring for correct number to color match up, that
the nuts are secure and, that no lugs touch one another.
Coat the brass terminals on both sensors with a light oil or grease
(e.g. WD-40, vaseline, etc.). Slide the boots onto the masts and up
around the sensor bodies.
Proceed to secure the stub masts with the sensors to the base mast using the hose clamps. Before
final tightening, turn the formed mast arm (with the distributor/vane assembly) to point true north
(see diagram). (If you use a magnetic compass, remember to allow for the magnetic declination for
your location. This information is available from your local airport.)
Secure the wires to the masts using cable ties or electrical tape so that it does not whip in the wind.
At the indicator, connect the cables to the terminal connectors. Plug the terminal connectors into the
indicator. Hang the indicator on the mounting screws.
Plug the AC Adaptor into the 110 VAC outlet. Verify that the POST codes are correct. This com-
pletes the installation of Summit.
