To set up the AcuRite 899 Wireless Digital Rain Gauge, follow these steps:
1. Unpack the rain gauge and remove any protective film from the LCD screen.
2. Install or replace batteries in both the rain gauge and the display. Use high-quality alkaline batteries for best performance.
3. Set the A-B-C switch on both the rain gauge and the display to the same letter (A, B, or C) to ensure synchronization.
4. Place the rain gauge on a flat, level surface outdoors. Make sure it is not in a low spot that could become flooded or obstructed by overhead objects.
5. Mount the rain gauge securely to a sturdy surface, such as a deck railing or fence post, using the included screws.
6. Position the display indoors within 100 feet of the rain gauge. Keep it at least 3 feet away from electronic devices that may interfere with wireless communication.
7. Set the time, date, and units on the display by pressing and holding the "SET" button for 3 seconds. Use the "+" and "-" buttons to adjust the settings.
8. Wait a few minutes for the rain gauge and display to synchronize. The rain gauge will collect and measure rainfall, while the display will show the rainfall data.
