Introduction

The Vantage Vue® wireless sensor suite collects outside weather data and sends the data
wirelessly to a Vantage Vue console via a low-power radio. The sensor suite is solar-
powered and includes a battery back-up.
The Vantage Vue sensor suite contains a rain collector, temperature/humidity sensor,
anemometer, and wind vane. The temperature/humidity sensor is mounted in a passive
radiation shield to minimize the impact of solar radiation on sensor readings. The
anemometer measures wind speed, and the wind vane measures wind direction.
The Sensor Interface Module (SIM) is housed within the sensor suite and comprises the
"brains" of the Vantage Vue system and the radio transmitter. The SIM collects outside
weather data from the sensor suite sensors and transmits that data to your Vantage Vue
console or WeatherLink Live.
Note: Your Vantage Vue sensor suite can transmit to an unlimited number of consoles, so you can
purchase additional consoles to use in different rooms. It can also transmit to Davis Vantage Pro2
consoles and Davis Weather Envoys as well as Vantage Vue consoles.
