Setting Console/Receiver(s) to Same ID
1. Put your console into Setup Mode — press and hold DONE and press the
DOWN arrow (-). The console will show you Screen 1: Transmitters. You should
see the words: “RECEIVING FROM...” and “STATION NO.” followed by the
transmitter IDs that your console detects. One of these should be the ID number
you just set on the anemometer transmitter. It may take one to two minutes for the
station ID to appear. If you don’t see it, verify that you set the DIP switches
correctly. If you still don’t see it, go to “Test Mode” on the next page.
2. Press DONE to move on to Screen 2: Selecting Transmitters. Setup Mode –
Screen 2 is where you will set the console to recognize signals on that transmitter
ID as coming from an anemometer transmitter.
3. Press the LEFT or RIGHT arrows to scroll through the transmitter IDs. When
you see the ID you chose for the anemometer, press the UP (+) or DOWN (-)
arrows to activate reception of that ID code. Make sure the screen shows “ON”.
4. Press GRAPH to change the type of station assigned to that transmitter ID. Press
GRAPH until the word “WIND” appears.
5. To exit Setup Mode, press and hold DONE.
(For more information, see the Vantage Pro2 User’s Manual & Setup Guide:
“Setup Mode – Screen 2: Selecting Transmitters.”)
The console/receiver will display wind readings from one anemometer in the
compass rose. Once you set the ID code, it makes no visible difference that the
readings are now being sent by the anemometer transmitter instead of the ISS
transmitter.
Viewing Current Wind Data
You should now see wind direction and speed displaying in the compass rose on the
console screen. Press WIND if necessary to alternate between speed and direction.
Spin the wind cups. Turn the wind vane, and allow 5 seconds for the wind direction
display to stabilize before moving it again.
Display of current wind data confirms communication between your anemometer
transmitter and the console. Go on to “Choosing a Location for the Anemometer
Transmitter” on page 6.
If You Do Not See Current Wind Readings
First, verify that the console/receiver is powered and is not in Setup Mode (exit
Setup Mode by pressing DONE and holding it for a moment). Then, on the trans-
mitter, ensure that the anemometer sensor cable is firmly plugged into the jack that
is labeled WIND on the SIM. Check that the battery is properly installed. Walk
around the room with the console, standing for a few moments in various locations
to see if you are picking up signals.
If you don’t see wind readings no matter where you stand with the console, put your
anemometer transmitter in Test Mode.
