DAVIS Vantage Pro2 Sensor Suite User Manual page 21

Optional: Changing Sensor Suite Transmitter ID
Each wireless transmitting station, including the sensor suite, uses one of eight
selectable Transmitter IDs. DIP switches #1, 2 and 3 on the transmitter control the
ID — or channel — the station transmits on. DIP switch #4 is used for transmission
testing, not for the Transmitter ID.
Note: The transmitter on the sensor suite and the receiver on the console communicate with
each other only when both are set to the same ID.
The default Transmitter ID is 1 for both the sensor suite and the Vantage Pro2
console, and should work fine for most situations. Change the Transmitter ID if any
of the following issues are true:
• Another Davis Instruments wireless weather station operating nearby already
uses Transmitter ID 1.
• You have purchased additional Vantage Pro2 or Vantage Vue wireless
transmitting stations and one of the stations has already been designated as
Station No. 1.
On the sensor suite, the Transmitter ID is set using the DIP switches located on
the sensor interface. To access the sensor interface, open the transmitter shelter
cover. (See page 7.)
