Introduction: Included Components and Hardware

Introduction

The Integrated Sensor Suite (ISS) collects outside weather data and sends the data to a

Vantage Pro console or Weather Envoy. Wireless and cabled versions of the ISS are

available, as well as standard and plus versions. The Wireless ISS is solar powered and

sends data to the console via a low-power radio. The Cabled ISS sends data and

receives power via the console cable.

Standard versions of the ISS include a rain collector, temperature sensor, humidity

sensor and anemometer. The ISS Plus adds a solar radiation sensor and an ultra-violet

(UV) sensor. Temperature and humidity sensors are mounted in a passive radiation

shield to minimize the impact of solar radiation on sensor readings. The anemometer

measures wind speed and direction and can be installed adjacent to ISS or apart from it,

see “Siting the ISS and Anemometer” on page 9 for siting guidelines.

The solar and UV sensors are mounted next to the rain collector cone. Solar and UV

sensors are available separately to upgrade a standard ISS. See “Appendix B: Optional

Accessories” on page 20.

The Sensor Interface Module (SIM) contains the “brains” of the ISS and is located on the

bottom of the radiation shield. The SIM collects outside weather data from the ISS

sensors and then transmits the data to your Vantage Pro console or Weather Envoy.

Included Components and Hardware

The ISS comes with all the components and hardware shown in the following illustra-

tions. If you purchased your ISS as part of a Weather Station, additional components may

be included in the package that are not shown here.

Components

Note: Do not touch the small white diffusers on top of the UV and solar radiation sensors. Oil from skin

reduces their sensitivity. Clean using ethyl alcohol on a soft cloth. NO RUBBING ALCOHOL.
