- Gear up. Don’t forget to stretch!
- Climb to 38 m.
- Hold the sensor out from the tower. Orient it such that it is not exposed to direct sunlight (e.g. W if morning, E in evening). Note compass direction.
- Level the sensor (roughly is OK).
- Push and release the button on the handle to take a measurement. You will hear 2 beeps. If you don’t, it is likely that the sensor is disconnected. Reconnect and try again.

- When done, push BREAK.
- Push FCT 09 to turn off the control unit.
