and the display appears. The unit will go into “sync mode” for 6 minutes.
2. Insert batteries in the outdoor rain gauge transmitter.
3. In the “sync mode” the indoor rain monitor will receive the outdoor
transmission signal within 6 minutes.

the rain monitor display.

means synchronization has occurred and the main unit has gotten the signal
from the transmitter unit.
