Assemble the Vantage Vue ISS
The Vantage Vue ISS 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 radio transmitter is housed within the ISS. It collects outside weather data from the
ISS sensors and transmits that data to the Weather Envoy.
Note: Your Vantage Vue ISS can transmit to a Vantage Vue or Vantage Pro2 console. You can purchase
one or more consoles to use in different rooms.
Prepare the ISS for Installation
It is best to prepare the ISS for installation inside, near your computer so that you can
easily verify data from the ISS before final installation.
Tools Needed
• Adjustable wrench or 7/16" (11 mm) wrench
• Compass or local area map
Note: Use a clean, well-lit work table or work area to prepare the ISS for installation.
