Sure! Here are the step-by-step instructions for installing the AcuRite 06051M Solar Power Pack:
1. Before installing outdoors, carefully loosen the small Phillips-type xxxx to remove the battery compartment cover on the back of the Solar Power Pack.
2. Install the included #18650 rechargeable lithium battery into the solar power pack, following the polarity diagram in the battery compartment.
3. Optional for installation in areas of lower sunlight - Locate the USB-C charging port within the battery compartment and charge the battery completely with a USB-C charger (not included). Utilize the integrated battery level indicator to indicate when the battery is fully charged.
MOUNTING ON 3/4” POLE:
4. Unscrew standard screws to separate the two halves of the pole clamp. Position the solar power pack at an easy-to-reach height to allow for cleaning of the solar panel surface as necessary.
5. Re-insert and tighten standard screws to secure the two halves of the pole clamp around the pole. Position the wire to form a drip loop to aid in keeping excess water away.
6. When routing the wire up to the AcuRite IRIS or AcuRite ATLAS weather sensor, do not wrap the wire around the pole as this can cause interference with the weather station wireless signal. Wrap any excess wire in a loop and secure. Adjust the solar panel angle for the best position by loosening the xxxx on the Solar Angle Adjustment. Re-tighten the xxxx to lock angle adjustments.
SURFACE MOUNT (Fence Post, Deck Post, Wall, etc.):
7. Unscrew standard screws to separate the two halves of the pole clamp. Position the solar power pack at an easy-to-reach height to allow for cleaning of the solar panel surface as necessary.
8. Insert and tighten the WOOD SCREWS to secure CLAMP PART A to a wood or similar surface. CLAMP PART B is not utilized in a surface mount installation (keep or discard). Position the wire to form a drip loop to aid in keeping excess water away.
9. When routing the wire up to the AcuRite IRIS or AcuRite ATLAS weather sensor, wrap any excess wire in a loop and secure. Adjust the solar panel angle for the best position by loosening the xxxx on the Solar Angle Adjustment. Re-tighten the xxxx to lock angle adjustments.
Connecting to AcuRite IRIS (5-IN-1):
10. The included battery compartment adaptor (A) and wire routing clips (B) will be utilized for installation with the AcuRite Iris (5-in-1).
11. Remove the original battery compartment cover from the bottom of the AcuRite Iris Sensor (keep or discard). Remove batteries if currently installed.
12. Install the wired battery compartment adaptor into the AcuRite Iris Sensor.
13. To further secure the wired battery compartment adaptor to the AcuRite Iris Sensor, insert the three (3) in-line clips into the 5-in-1 Sensor as shown. The cord must be taut along the base of the sensor to prevent it from interfering with the sensor's wind vane.
Connecting to AcuRite ATLAS:
14. The included battery compartment adaptor (A) and wire routing clips (B) will NOT be utilized for installation with the AcuRite Atlas. If you have an AcuRite ATLAS sensor, you may unplug the battery compartment adaptor and discard it.
15. Remove the battery compartment cover from the bottom of the AcuRite Atlas outdoor sensor. Remove batteries if currently installed.
16. Plug the power adapter cord into the battery compartment of the sensor.
17. Loop the cord through the slot, then replace the battery compartment cover.
