7011.025. If your installation is in a warmer climate, you may replace the battery
with a 6-volt, 12 Ah, gel cell battery which will only charge at temperatures above
0°C. See Battery Specifications on page 13. (With either battery, your Vantage
Connect can function down to -40°F/C.)
My status LED is flashing.
The two LED lights indicate the connection status. They flash when Vantage
Connect is searching for a signal from the weather station (upper LED) or a cell
signal (lower LED). Once the signal is detected, the light will turn solid and stay
on for a few minutes, indicating success. It can take several minutes to acquire all
signals.
If there is an error in getting a signal, the status LEDs will flash to indicate the type
of error. For example, if the cell status LED (lower) is flashing, and the top LED
blinks two times, pauses, then blinks two times, repeatedly, low cell signal strength
is indicated. Use the tables below to ascertain what error is being indicated and to
report to Tech Support.
