Power Up

Note: 

Register your Vantage Connect online and wait 5 to 10 minutes BEFORE you power 
it up to avoid a delay in uploading data. If you already powered up before registering, 
remove power from the Vantage Connect, register, then repower.

1. If using Vantage Connect with a 

cabled

 ISS, remove the plug from one of the 

holes in the bottom of the shelter. Run the ISS cable up through the hole. 
Outside the shelter, wrap a split grommet around the cable and push the 
grommet securely into the hole. Plug the cable into the ISS cable jack.

2. Plug the main power cable back into the jack. You should hear two beeps.
