Do not remove the instrument or sensor from the mounting kit during alignment.
  1. If the transmitter is mounted, loosen the fixing screw on the bottom of the transmitter so that you can rotate it.
  2. Use a compass to determine that the transducer heads of the transmitter are exactly in line with the compass and that the arrow on the bottom of the transmitter points North.
  3. Tighten the fixing screw. Tightening torque 1.5 Nm.
If you could not align the sensor to the North, write down the wind direction offset (deviation angle). This is needed for the metadata in the Web UI.
