RAIN GAUGE

The rain gauge collects rain and takes readings of rainfall
rate and the total rainfall over a period of time. The sensor
can remotely transmit data to the main unit.
The main unit and rain gauge should be positioned
within an effective range: about 100 m (329 ft) in an
open area.
The rain gauge should be mounted horizontally about
one meter (three feet) from the ground in an open area
away from tress or other obstructions to allow rain to fall
naturally for an accurate reading.

Water will pool to the center of the cross when the rain
gauge is level.
If water remains on 1-4, the gauge is not horizontal.
If necessary, adjust the level using the screw.
