Communication

If the Weather Display is not displaying current weather data from the
weather station or the MicroServer, check the following:
1. Make sure the input type (weather station type) is set correctly in
the Configure screen.
2. Verify that measurements are selected in the Measurements
screen.
3. Verify that the IP address of the MicroServer has been entered in
correctly in the Configuration screen.
4. Login to the MicroServer and verify that it is receiving data by
viewing the Latest Measurements page.
5. If the Orion, Magellan, Magellan MX, Vela or Pulsar sensor is part
of the weather station locate the Interface Module. The green
power LED should be solid and the red signal LED should be
blinking once every second. For Capricorn 2000EX or Capricorn
FLX stations, the Control Module power LED should be on.
6. Check the RS-232 cable between the Weather Display and the
weather station for proper connection and configuration. Use the
original cable supplied with the console.

Recovery Mode

Recovery Mode gives the user the ability to boot the Display Console into
a separate web browser user interface to update firmware, save device
settings, and restore the unit to factory settings.
Please note Recovery Mode requires a network connection to the Display
Console or a one-to-one connection from the Display Console to a
computer over Ethernet.
If the Weather Display becomes corrupted, the user can force the unit into
a limited Recovery Mode to restore the Display by following the procedure
below:
1. Power down the Display Console.
