Davis stations use a very robust radio and are becoming more and more common.
There may be a Davis station nearby that is already transmitting on Transmitter ID
1, and your Envoy is picking up its signal rather than yours. You should change the
transmitter ID of your ISS and the Envoy.
To set a new transmitter ID on the ISS:
1. Push and hold the transmitter ID pushbutton until the LED begins flashing
quickly. This indicates it is in the setup mode.
2. Release the pushbutton, and the LED will go dark.
3. Quickly push the pushbutton the number of times equal to your desired new
transmitter ID. That is, if you want to change the ID to “3,” push the pushbutton
three times; for a desired ID of “4,” push the pushbutton four times.
After four seconds have elapsed with no further presses, the LED will blink the
same number of times as the new transmitter ID. (After blinking the transmitter ID
number, the light will begin to flash each time a packet is transmitted, about every
2.5 seconds.)
You must configure the Envoy to “listen” to this new ID number. See “Set
My rain data seems too low.
If the rain collector seems to be under-reporting rainfall, clean the debris screen and
tipping spoon module to clear out any debris.
The wind cups are spinning but my displays shows 0 mph.
The wind cups may not be turning the shaft. Remove the cups from the anemometer by
loosening the set screw. Put the cups back onto the shaft and make sure to slide them
down the shaft as far as possible. Retighten the set screw.
The wind cups don’t spin or don’t spin as fast as they should.
The anemometer may be located where wind is blocked by something, or there may be
friction interfering with the cups’ rotation. Remove the wind cups by loosening the set
screw, and clear out any insects or debris which may be interfering with the cup rotation.
Turn the shaft the cups rotate on. If it feels gritty or stiff, contact Davis Technical
Support.
Note:
Do not lubricate the shaft or bearings in any way.
I can’t seem to establish a communication between WeatherLink and the
Weather Envoy.
Start by checking the Envoy’s own diagnostics.
Note: The data logger uses non-volatile memory, so you won’t lose any data you’ve already recorded.
1. Remove power, both AC and batteries.
Remove any extension cables that are
in the system.Open the Envoy case and
unplug the data logger.
2. Wait at least two minutes, then plug the data logger back in. Make sure it is
plugged in firmly and completely.
3. Power up with the AC Adapter. You should hear two beeps, each of which occurs
when the Envoy passes one of its diagnostic tests. Each beep follows the previous
