Customer Questions & Answers
 

Question: How do you program the device, with an cell phone only, or do you use a keyboard?

Answer: Cell phone or desktop programming for this device is very limited. It's only used to set your WIFI connection and accounts for uploading your data to the Cloud sites.

Question: Can this be used in apt balcony.

Answer: Obviously any brand weather station sensor should be mounted out in the open at least 6ft off the ground. Example Balcony facing East would have winds from the West Blocked by the building!

Question: How do you calibrate indoor temp.?

Answer: Please turn to page 34 of the operating manual or subscribe to our video.

Question: How do you set date and time

Answer: If you connect the unit via Wi-Fi time and date can be set via internet.

Question: I need to be able to read the sensor values directly from the weather station using a program. is the api published to directly access the data?

Answer: Not this devic

Question: Can you see the rime displayed in the dark?

Answer: You can see it dark or light, plus display light adjustment.

Question: Does the outdoor sensor unit require rechargable batteries?

Answer: No, it doesn't require it. I would recommend though using lithion-ion batteries. They won't leak or burst like a NiMH or similar battery. And the lithiom ion batteries usually last quite a long time.

Question: If a portion of the Osprey goes bad, can it be replaced, or do I have to buy the whole thing? For example, the rain gauge goes out...

Answer: It depends on the part but if the rain gauge fails, the entire sensor array needs replacing. The sensor array is relatively less expensive.

Question: Does this weather station sample the peak wind speed every second, and then transmit the data every 16 seconds?

Answer: the wind speed is averaged over 16 seconds and the wind gust is sampled every second.

Question: Best mount for this unit?

Answer: Just be sure that it can 'see' wind coming from all directions and that it doesn't read air temperatures from hot surfaces (concrete, roofs, etc.) If you can mount it to a free-standing mast that would be ideal.

Question: Does the display show instantaneous (amount as if falls) rainfall?

Answer: Yes, it does. Rain Rate is defined as the rainfall in the last 10 minutes, multiplied by 6 (10 minutes x 6 = 1 hour). This is also referred to as instantaneous rain per hour
