Main Parts​

Outdoor Weather Station​

The outdoor sensor is a set of sensors encased in a plastic shell that ensures the proper function of the weather station.

The outdoor sensor is responsible for:

  1. the collection of measurements of local temperature, humidity, rain, wind speed and wind direction, and
  2. the wireless transmission of the data to the weather miner.

Components

  1. Wind Speed Sensor
  2. Wind Vane
  3. Thermo-hygro sensor
  4. Rain collector
  5. Bubble level
  6. Solar panel
  7. Antenna
  8. Light sensor
  9. U-Bolts
  10. Battery compartment
  11. Reset button
  12. LED Indicator: light on for 4s on powers up. Then the LED will flash once every 20 seconds (the sensor transmission update period).

This part of your weather station is placed outdoors. For further details about an advisable installation of the outdoor sensor, please see Installing the WS1001 Weather Station.

WG1200 Gateway (D1 WiFi)​

The WG1200 Gateway (D1 WiFi) is the device responsible for receiving weather measurements from the outdoor sensor and transmitting them via WiFi to the WeatherXM network.

The D1 Gateway is advised to be placed indoors, in an environment of relatively constant temperature (ideally within a daily range of <4°C/7°F for proper functioning of the barometer).

The D1 Gateway should be permanently connected to power and powered on in order to be able to receive, record and upload measurements to the Internet.
