Install the Rain Collector Tipping Spoon
Assembly
1. Locate the tipping spoon assembly slot on the
underside of the ISS Base.
2. Insert the wider end of the tipping spoon assembly
into the slot first, sliding it under the raised lip of the
slot.
3. Fit the narrow end into the slot and tighten the
thumbscrew securely.
Install the Debris Screen
The Vantage Vue ISS rain collector debris screen captures
debris that may otherwise clog your rain collector.
1. Locate the small black plastic ISS debris screen in your
hardware package.
The debris screen has four small tabs that hold it in place
in the base of the rain collector.
2. Holding the ISS assembly with one hand, and holding the
debris screen by the top, press it into the opening in the
rain collector until the tabs snap into the opening.
Install the Battery
The Vantage Vue ISS SIM board stores energy from the solar panel for power at night. A 3-
volt lithium battery provides a backup power source. The battery compartment is located on
the underside of the ISS base. The compartment cover is included in the hardware packet.
To install the ISS backup battery.
1. Insert the 3-volt lithium battery into
the ISS battery compartment, being
sure to match the "+" sign on the
battery with the "+" sign embossed
on the inside of the battery
compartment.
2. Ensure that the battery is properly in
place, install the battery compart-
ment cover, and tighten the thumb-
screw.
To verify power, wait 30 seconds
then push and release the white transmitter ID pushbutton next to the battery compartment.
The green transmitter ID LED next to the battery compartment will illuminate when you
press the pushbutton.
Note:
Press the pushbutton once and release it. Do not press it multiple times or hold it down.
