The SensorLink Transmitter (#7610) and SensorLink Receiver (#7611) are
designed to work with Davis Instruments' Weather Monitor II
Weather Wizard III
sors and console up to 400 feet (120 m). The SensorLink Transmitter/Receiver
pair takes the place of the junction box and cable that would normally connect
the outdoor sensors to the display console. The outdoor sensors connect to the
transmitter while the display console connects to the receiver.
One transmitter can send data to any number of Monitor II or Wizard III con-
soles, providing the console contains an receiver. The transmitter/receiver
communicate on one of 8 different ID codes set by the user. This allows multi-
ple systems to coexist in the same geographical area.
Note: SensorLink operates on a low power frequency that does not require an FCC license.
