User Guide for AcuRite 06103M Direct-to-Wi-Fi Color Display

Quick Start Guide

This guide provides the essential steps to set up your AcuRite 06103M display. Key points to remember: the Wi-Fi setup page is only active for 30 minutes after the display is powered on (press the set button to reactivate), and the A-B-C switch inside the sensor battery compartment must match the setting on the display for proper synchronization.

Setup Requirements

• AcuRite 06103M Display
• Power Adapter
• AcuRite Iris (5-in-1) Sensor (may be sold separately)
• 3 AAA backup batteries (recommended)
• 2.4 GHz Wireless Network
• Phone, tablet, or computer with Wi-Fi

Display Configuration

Plug in the power adapter to begin the automatic configuration process. Use the Up and Down buttons to navigate options and the set button to confirm your selections. You can configure the following settings:

• 12 or 24 Hour Clock Display
• Clock Hour and Minute
• Calendar Month, Date, and Year
• Temperature Units (°F / °C)
• Wind Speed Units (mph, km/h, knots)
• Rainfall Units (inches / mm)
• Pressure Units (inHg / hPa)

These settings can be adjusted at any time by pressing the set button.

Sensor Installation and Mounting

In the outdoor sensor battery compartment, install four AA alkaline or lithium batteries. Ensure the small A-B-C switch in the battery compartment matches the selection on the display (default is A). Once installed, the display should automatically sync with the sensor within a minute.

For mounting the outdoor sensor:

• Place at least 5 feet (1.5 meters) off the ground.
• Ensure the front solar cell is facing south.
• Keep away from heat and humidity sources.
• Use the bubble level on top of the sensor to ensure it is level for accurate rain reporting.
• Remove the rain gauge stabilizer from the sensor after mounting.

Wi-Fi Setup and Remote Monitoring

To connect your display to the My AcuRite network:

1. Connect to the Wi-Fi signal broadcast by your display using your phone or Wi-Fi-compatible device.
2. Open a web browser and type 192.168.4.1 in the address bar to access the AcuRite Wi-Fi display settings website.
3. Select your local Wi-Fi network name, enter your network password, and press Save.
4. Reconnect your device to your normal Wi-Fi network.
5. Download the My AcuRite mobile app or visit www.myacurite.com to complete the account setup. You will need the device ID located on the back of the display or inside the battery compartment.

Additional Notes

To retain Wi-Fi configuration details during power outages, backup batteries in the display are strongly recommended. The display can be power cycled at any time to clear Wi-Fi credentials if needed.
