1. Introduction

Thanks for your purchasing this WS80 6-in-1

Ultrasonic Sensor Package. This device measures

wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity,

UV Index and solar radiation. The Ultrasonic Sensor

Package is solar powered and sends data to the

receiver via a low-power radio. The data can be

streamed by GW1100 Wi-Fi Gateway (sold separately)

or HP2551/HP2553 console display (sold separately);

and can be viewed on our WS View Plus or Ecowitt

App application after the Wi-Fi configuration done.

To ensure the best product performance, please read

this manual and retain it for future reference.

3M extension cord

Table: Package content

If any component is missing from the package, or

broken, please contact our Customer Service

department to resolve the issue.

Note: Batteries for the ultrasonic anemometer are

not included. You will need 2 AA size

Lithium battery for the ultrasonic anemometer,

which is primarily for startup and backup

purpose. After setup and during normal

operation, the unit is getting its power from

solar cell.

Note: There’s a built-in heat plate in the 6-in-1

sensor package body, if the lowest

temperature at your place is below -3°C, or

26.6°F, and the weather is mostly snowy or

rainy, then you may need to activate the

heater by supplying an external 12V/1A

power to the sensor heating element for

melting accumulated snow or ice, which can

influence wind measurement accuracy

significantly. Please contact us at

[email protected]om for the extension cord

information if needed.

There’s a built-in thermostat inside the anemometer

sensor to control the power supply for the heat

plate, which will automatically turn on below

0℃(30℉) and automatically turn off above

10℃(50℉).

4. Setup Guide

4.1 Install batteries in sensor package

Open the battery compartment with a screwdriver and

insert 2 AA batteries in the battery compartment, and

press “Reset” button, the LED indicator on the back of

the sensor package (item 4) will turn on for 3 seconds

and then flash once every 4.8 seconds indicating

sensor data transmission. If you did not pay attention,

you may have missed the initial indication. You can

always press the reset button to start over. Make sure

you see the flash once every 4.8 seconds.

If sensor has been put outside for some time, and solar

panel has charged up the internal accumulator fully or

partially, if you install the 2 AA backup battery, the

system might not start up properly. So you can always

make a system reset by press the “Reset” button.

Figure 2: Battery installation diagram

Note: Please make sure the battery is inserted

correctly for its polarity as the system needs

its initial power from this backup battery to

start up the system before solar panel charges

up the accumulator and supply system power

afterwards. when in high altitude area, during

wintertime, sunshine time is short, thus

system needs to be powered from this backup

battery, we recommend Lithium batteries to

be used for cold weather climates. Please

avoid alkaline batteries, especially when

internal heater is to be activated during cold

and wet weather conditions as when heater

activated, the trapped heat inside will warm

up internally, and alkaline batteries are

extremely susceptible to leakage when

temperature is over certain limits.

4.2 Mount ultrasonic anemometer assembly

4.2.1 Before you mount

Before installing your outdoor sensor in the

permanent location, we recommend operating the

device for one week in a temporary location with easy

access. This will allow you to check out all of the

functions, ensure proper operation and familiarize you

with the device performance.

4.2.2 Mounting

You can attach a pole(not included) to a

permanent structure and then attach the sensor

package to it (see Figure 3-8).

The U-Bolts will accommodate a pole diameter of

1.25-2 inches (pole not included).

1. Install the base on a pole (1.25inch~2inch) as

Figure 3.

Figure 3: Sensor package mounting diagram 6-1

2. Pass the connector cord through the arm tube as

Figure 4:

Figure 4: Sensor package mounting diagram 6-2

3. Attaching the arm tube to the Ultrasonic Sensor as

Figure 5.

Figure 5: Sensor package mounting diagram 6-3

4. Install the base with U-bolts and threaded nuts to a

pole (not included) as Figure 6 shows:

Figure 6: Sensor package mounting diagram 6-4

5. Insert the arm tube into the base as Figure 7. Be

sure to line up the small hole in the arm with the

holes in the base. Insert the machine screw through

the holes in the base and arm. ( if you don’t need to

power up the heater, you should keep the power

cord terminal inside the mounting arm and this can

make the installation looks neat and tidy. You may

take it out when needed.)

Figure 7: Sensor package mounting diagram 6-5

Make sure the mounting pole is vertical, or very close

to it. Use a level as needed.

6. During wintertime, to prevent ice formed on the

reflection surface, The package including a 3M

extension cord ,Please connect the cord to the

connector that client want as Fingure 8 show

Figure 8: Sensor package mounting diagram 6-6

7. If optional extension cord is added, connect

extension cord and then connector AC adaptor as

Figure 9 show:

Accessory: 3M extension

cord included

Figure 9: Sensor package mounting diagram 6-7

Finally, place the sensor package on top of the

prepared mounting pipe. The U-Bolts should be loose

enough to allow this but loosen the nuts as necessary.

Once placed, hand tighten all four nuts, taking care to

do so evenly. Do not use a wrench yet!

Accessory Part only, not included!

Now you will need to align the whole package in the

proper direction by rotating it on top of the mounting

pipe as needed. Locate the arrow labeled “NORTH”

that you will find on top of the connector tube of the

sensor package (item 6). You must rotate the whole

sensor package until this arrow points due north. To

achieve proper alignment, it is helpful to use a

compass (many cell phones have a compass

application). Once rotated in the correct orientation,

lightly tighten the bolts a little more (use a wrench) to

prevent further rotation.

Note: In Southern hemisphere, it is not necessary to

change the orientation to SOUTH as its solar

panel is a rounded type and it is orientation

free for its charging capability.

Make sure the mounting tube for the sensor package is

installed vertically (use a level at 90-degree offsets

around the tube). Adjust the mounting pipe as

necessary. Next also make sure the mounting of the

anemometer body on the pipe is level. If it is not,

wind direction and speed readings may not operate

correctly or accurately. Adjust the mounting assembly

as necessary.

Make sure you check, and correct if necessary, the

north orientation again, as the final installation step,

and now tighten the bolts with a wrench. Do not over

tighten, but make sure strong wind and/or rain cannot

move the sensor package.

4.2.3 Reset Button and Transmitter LED

In the event the sensor package is not transmitting,

reset the sensor.

Using a bent-open paperclip, press and hold the

RESET BUTTON (item 12) to affect a reset: the LED

turns on while the RESET button is depressed, and

you can now let go. The LED should then resume as

normal, flashing approximately once every 4.8

seconds.

5. Wi-Fi Configure with gateway

If you want to view the Ultrasonic Sensor data on

your mobile application, you need to pair this device

with our GW1100 Wi-Fi Gateway or HP2551/HP2553

display console (sold separately).

5.1 Pair with gateway or display console

Please follow the tips to pair your sensor(s) with the
