Thank you for selecting the Oregon Scientic™ Full
Wireless Weather Station Kit (WMR89/WMR89A).
This system can provide you with weather information
through several sensors with high levels of accuracy. All
sensors are cabled to a transmitter box which is battery
and solar powered operated for wirelessly communicating
and displaying the data on an indoor LCD main unit.
This system records the data up to 7 days for you to
monitor and analyze the weather status. You can also
export the data to a PC by an USB cable for systematic
data management and analysis.
The base station is compatible with other sensors. To
purchase additional sensors, please contact your local
retailer.
NO T E Please keep this manual handy as you use
your new product. It contains practical step-by-step
instructions, as well as technical specifications and
warnings you should know about.

Press S EL EC T until the selected area icon is in the
top right display area.
• Wind speed: Gently rotate the wind vane and conrm
a numerical reading on the base station, e.g. .
• Wind direction indicator. Move the direction of the
wind indication and verify the icon moves in the same

Secure the sensor connector in the desired location:
a. Align the back of the sensor connector to an existing
pole. Secure in place by inserting the ends of the
U-bolt into the holes on the sensor connector and
securing it with washers and bolts.
OR
b. Insert 4 type A screws into the holes of the sensor
connector. Screw rmly into place, i.e., fence.
Slide wind vane onto the smaller end of the sensor
connector.
