110-WS-25P Quick Start
Hardware Installation
Select a level area on firm ground that will support the tripod. The
area should be away from buildings or trees that block air
movement. A grassy area is preferred. Install the spiral stake,
making sure there are no buried pipes or wires in the area.
1. The mast is in two sections. Open the tripod fully, then insert
one section into the tripod with the swaged end pointing up.
Tighten the bolts to clamp the mast. Center the tripod over the
spiral stake, and secure it using the ratcheting tie down.
2. Assemble the wind sensor on the swaged end of the remaining
mast section. Secure it with the two screws provided.
3. Rotate the mast until the NORTH label on the wind sensor
points north, then lower the assembly onto the tripod.
4. Mount the temperature or temp/humidity sensor on the mast.
5. If any optional sensors were ordered, mount them on the mast,
except for the optional barometric pressure sensor, which should
remain in the carrying case to protect it from the weather.
Wiring
Whenever possible, sensors ordered with the portable weather stations are pre-wired and configured
in the logger. If it is necessary to add sensors, the logger must be lifted out to access the breakout
board(s) where the screw terminals are located.

Power
1. To turn on the logger, simply connect the red battery lead to the positive terminal of the battery.
The system can run for up to 10 days from a fully charged battery.
2. To charge the battery after a logging session, connect the AC charger's 2-pin quick connect to the
logger, then connect the charger to a power outlet (100-240 Vac). A LED on the charger indicates
the status: RED LED = Charging, GREEN LED = Charged.
Logger Status
Use the up and down buttons below the display to toggle through
the Main Menu.
1. Check the Date and Time.
2. Check the logging interval, which is expressed in seconds.
3. If correct, insert the memory card to begin logging. Otherwise
consult the instruction manual
View Sensor Data on the Logger
Scroll to Counter Channels, Analog Channels or Wind Channels
and then press the SELECT button. Within the sub-menus, press
the up and down buttons to view sensor data.
 Counter Channels 2: Rain Today
 Analog Channels A0: Input Voltage, A4: Temperature,
A5: Humidity, A6: Barometric Pressure
 Wind Channels AN0: Wind Speed/Max, Wind Direction
Download Data
1. Press inwards on the data card to release it.
2. Insert the data card into the USB card reader (included). Connect the card reader to a computer.
3. Open File Explorer to access the contents of the memory card. Copy any files you want to keep.
Note: The logger creates a new file every day, with the date code as the name (YYYYMMDD.csv)
4. Open the file in a spreadsheet. It may be necessary to invoke "Text to Columns" to get the data to
fall into separate columns. The logger does not pre-pend column headings, so you will need to
create headings and copy/paste them into the spreadsheet to make it easier to interpret the data.
