Setup Mode - Screen 2: Selecting Transmitters
Use setup screen 2 to tell the Console/Receiver which transmitter IDs to listen
to, and what kind of station each transmitter represents.
Setup Screen 2: Here's what should greet most new Vantage Pro owners. The con-
sole comes factory pre-set at transmitter ID 1. "ON" means the console will receive
signals from that ID and will assume the transmitter is an ISS. For most owners, this
will complete this step. See the ISS manual for further details.
You probably do NOT need to change transmitter IDs. The default transmitter
ID for the ISS is '1'. Your console/receiver will assume that Station 1 is your ISS
and should find its transmissions automatically. This should complete Setup
screen 2 for most owners.
In the unlikely event that you do need to change transmitter IDs (e.g. a neigh-
bor is using a Davis product nearby or you have more an optional transmitter
(See "Optional Sensors" on page 9.) read on. Otherwise, skip down to Setup
Screen 3.
To activate reception on different ID codes, press the LEFT or RIGHT arrow
key, or the "STATION" key, to scroll between transmitter IDs.
Note: Station IDs do not have to be in order. The factory default transmitter ID for the ISS is "1".
See your transmitter's manual to learn how to set the transmitter ID.
