Welcome to Vantage Pro2
TM
Welcome to your Vantage Pro2 Weather Station console. The console displays and
records your station’s weather data, provides graph and alarm functions, and interfaces
to a computer using our optional WeatherLink
®
software.
Vantage Pro2 stations are available in two basic versions: cabled and wireless. A
cabled Vantage Pro2 station transmits outside sensor data from the Integrated Sensor
Suite (ISS) to the console using a straight-through four-conductor cable. A wireless
Vantage Pro2 station transmits outside sensor data from the ISS to the console via a
low-power radio.
Note: Wireless consoles can also collect data from optional Vantage Pro2 sensors or a
Davis Vantage Vue ISS, and can also retransmit data to other Vantage Pro2 or Van-
tage Vue consoles or a Davis Weather Envoy. You can have an unlimited number of
consoles - one in each room!
The Vantage Pro2 Quick Reference Guide included with your station provides an easy
to use reference for most console functions.
Console Features
Keyboard & Display
The keyboard lets you view current and historical data, set and clear alarms, change
station models, enter calibration numbers, set up and view graphs, select sensors, and
read the forecast. The keyboard consists of 12 command keys located next to the screen
display and four navigation keys located below the command keys.
A weather variable or console command is printed on each command key.
Just press a key to select the variable or function printed on that key.
Each command key also has a secondary function which is printed above
the key on the console case. To select the secondary function, press and
release 2ND (on the front of the console, upper right corner) and then
immediately press the key for that function.
After pressing 2ND, the 2ND icon displays above the barometer reading on the screen
for three seconds. All secondary key functions are enabled during this time. Keys
resume normal operation after the icon disappears.
The+ and - navigation keys, along with < and > navigation keys are used
to select command options, adjust values, and to provide additional func-
tions when used in combination with a command key.
