Installation manual

Re-Install the ISS

1. Install the rain collector cone and turn the ISS upside down.

2. Open the SIM cover and connect the TEMP/HUM and RAIN sensor cables.

3. If installed on your station, connect cable for the UV and SUN sensors.

4. Wireless ISS Only: Connect the power cable.

5. Close the SIM cover.

6. Re-install the ISS in its previous location.

7. Open the SIM cover and connect the WIND (anemometer) cable.

8. Cabled ISS Only: Connect the console cable.

9. Close the SIM cover and fasten the cover using two #6 x 1/2” (3.5mm x 12mm)

self-threading screws. Without the screws the SIM cover can be blown off the

housing in extremely windy conditions.

10. Use cable ties to secure cables.

Guidelines for Securing Cables

• Secure cables so they will not whip about in the wind.

• Secure cables to metal poles by using a cable tie or by wrap-

ping electrical tape around them both.

• Place clips or ties approximately every 3 to 5 feet (1 to

1.6 m).

• If needed, additional cable ties, cable tie mounts, and other hardware can be

obtained at a hardware or electronics store.

Note: Do not use metal staples or a staple gun to secure cables. Metal staples—especially when

installed with a staple gun—have a tendency to cut the cables.
