17.8 RAEMet Meteorological Sensor (Optional)

If your AreaRAE Plus/Pro is equipped with a RAEMet meteorological sensor (P/N: C04-0970-000), it is
typically removed for storage and must be attached before using it.
1. If the AreaRAE Plus/Pro is on, turn it off. (Never attach or remove the RAEMet without first
turning off the instrument's power.)
2.
Lift up the weather-tight rubber cover, located at the end of the handle, to expose the RAEMet
receptacle.
3. Align the RAEMet's connector plug with the AreaRAE Plus/Pro's receptacle using the indexing
key and notch as a guide.
4. Press the RAEMet's base into place, and then turn the locking ring to tighten the connection.
Never force the connector in or out of the receptacle.
5. Tighten the locking ring until the RAEMet sensor is firmly seated. Do not turn the entire
RAEMet sensor.
If the RAEMet and AreaRAE receptacle are not aligned properly, electrical connections will not be made
and the RAEMet sensor will not operate. Also, when the RAEMet sensor is not attached to the
instrument, make sure the cover is securely closed to keep moisture and debris from entering the base.
Note: Keep strong magnets away from the RAEMet sensor. It contains a compass, and strong magnetism
can affect its accuracy.
