How to Read Rainfall Data  
How To Set Up and Use Your Wireless Rain Gauge System  
One Year Warranty  
This Digital Wireless transmitter is engineered to give you years of  
satisfactory service if you handle it carefully, following these guidelines:  
1. The receiver unit shows two temperature readings to the right of the  
clock/calendar display. The bottom readout is the temperature at the  
receiver's location. The top readout is the temperature at a remote  
sensor's location. If more than one remote sensor is set, simply press  
the “CH” button on the back of the receiver to toggle to another  
channel. The “CH” (Channel) Icon will indicate which channel is  
currentlydisplayed.  
2. Press the “MAX/MIN” button once to display the highest recorded  
indoor/outdoor temperatures. Press “MAX/MIN” again to display  
the lowest recorded indoor/outdoor temperatures. Each reading will  
display for 5 seconds, and then the display will return to the current  
temperatures.  
Disconnected Signals  
If the receiver unit does not receive a transmission from the transmitter  
or the remote sensor for 1 hour, the display will show dashes.  
Range of temperature measurement:  
Indoor: 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C)  
Outdoor: -4°F to 140°F (-20°C to 60°C)*  
1. Your Taylor® Wireless Rain Gauge will track the amount of daily,  
weekly, and monthly rainfall. It will also report total accumulated  
rainfall, which is the total rainfall recorded since the unit was last  
reset to zero. Press the “-“ button to toggle between the different  
displays.  
1. Follow Battery Installation and Clock/Calendar Set Up as directed  
above.  
This product is warranted against defects in materials or  
workmanship for one (1) year from the date of original purchase. It  
does not cover damages or wear resulting from accident, misuse,  
abuse, commercial use, or unauthorized adjustment and/or repair.  
2.Place the receiver unit as close as possible to the transmitter and  
sensor (they must be within 100 feet of each other). This will  
ensure easy synchronization between the transmission and  
reception of signals as you set up your wireless system.  
1. The receiver is intended for indoor use only. It is not sealed against  
moisture and could be damaged if used outdoors.  
Digital Wireless  
To correct this problem:  
1. Check that the transmitter and remote sensor are properly  
positioned, within a 100' transmission range.  
2. Check to make sure the transmission path is clear of obstacles and  
interference.  
3. If new batteries are faulty on the initial installation, install fresh  
batteries, following the steps in the Battery Installation section of  
this manual.  
4.At temperatures below 32°F (0°C), the LCD readout on the remote  
sensor may fail to display. When this occurs, the sensor will still  
transmit correct temperature readings to the receiver unit, but the  
temperature can not be seen on the sensor. When the temperature  
rises above 32°F (0°C), the display will begin to function normally  
again.

2. A signal is sent from the transmitter to the receiver every 30  
seconds when it is raining. If there is no rainfall, a signal will  
transmit every 2½ minutes. This signal will update the data on the  
receiver if any changes have occurred.  
Range of rainfall measurement:  
3. The transmitter is weather-resistant but not waterproof. Do not  
immerse it in water or allow snow to accumulate in it. If this  
accidentally occurs, dry it immediately with a soft, lint-free cloth.  
3. The receiver unit should display zeros after proper battery  
installation and registration signal initialization. If the receiver still  
shows dashes, reinstall the receiver's batteries. If the receiver  
shows a numerical rainfall value after installing the rain gauge,  
reset it by pressing the "+" button. See Battery Installation section  
for detailed instructions.  
Note: The effective transmission range of the transmitter and  
sensor is 100 feet. The effective range is vastly affected by  
building materials, physical obstructions (trees, sheds,  
fountains, etc), and where the receiver and transmitter units  
are positioned. Try various set ups for the best result.  
Shorten the distance between the receiver and transmitter  
units when necessary. Keep the transmitter at least 3 feet  
from any obstructions which may affect rain collection. For  
instance, do not place the transmitter under a tree, as  
water dripping from leaves into the rain cup will overstate  
actual rainfall.  
Daily: 0-39.33 inches (0-999 millimeters)  
Weekly: 0-393.66 inches (0-9999 millimeters)  
Monthly: 0-393.66 inches (0-9999 millimeters)  
Resolution: 0.04 inches (1 millimeter)  
4. Though the rain gauge is weather-resistant, it should not be left  
outdoors in snow or at temperatures at or below -4°F (-20°C). If  
the temperature falls below this point or if snow accumulates, move  
the transmitter to an indoor area. Otherwise, permanent damage  
to the transmitter's internal circuits may occur.
