Setting the Transmitter ID

Setting the Console Station ID using WeatherLink

You can also set the console ID for your Temp/Hum Station from WeatherLink 
version 5.2 or later. 

• In WeatherLink 5.2 and 5.3 set the station type to ISS (TEMP/HUM). 

• In WeatherLink 5.4 or later set the station type to TEMP HUM 4x.

Note:

These settings are required because of changes made to the transmitter in this 

version of the Temp/Hum Station.

Viewing Current Temperature and Humidity

1. On the console, press the TEMP key until you see an ‘outside’ temperature 

displayed on the console screen, with the correct Station No. displayed 
above or below it. 

2. Do the same with the HUM key. 

3. This confirms communication between your Temp/Hum Station and the 

console. If you are not receiving the sensor readings on the console go the 
the next section, “No Communication with Temp/Hum Station”.

4. Close the SIM housing cover. See page 3.

5. Go on to “Choosing a Location for the Temp/Hum Station” on page 7. 

No Communication with Temp/Hum Station

1. First, verify that the console is powered and is not in Setup Mode (exit Setup 

Mode by pressing DONE key and holding it for a moment). 

2. On the Temp/Hum Station, check that the battery is properly installed. 

3. Walk around the room with the console, standing for a few moments in var-

ious locations to see if you are picking up signals.

4. If you don’t see readings no matter where you stand with the console, put 

the transmitter on your Temp/Hum Station in TEST mode. 

TEST mode 

DIP switch #4 on the SIM (see illustration on page 5) is the TEST DIP-switch. 
Switch it to the ON position using a ball-point pen or paper clip. This puts the 
transmitter in Test Mode. An LED indicator light will flash each time it 
transmits: 

• The LED will immediately flash once to show that the light itself func-

tions.

• Then it will flash each time the transmitter broadcasts a signal, which 

should be every 10 seconds. 

If the LED flashes only once and then remains dark, there is a problem with the 
transmitter. See “Contacting Davis Instruments” on page 11.

If the LED flashes repeatedly but your console isn’t picking up a signal 
anywhere in the room, it could be related to one of the following causes:
