Note:
The transmitter on the ISS and receiver on the console will communicate with each other only when both
are set to the same transmitter ID.
Note:
If you hold the pushbutton too long and accidentally enter the “set new transmitter ID” mode when you did
not want to, simply release the pushbutton and wait four seconds. As long as you do not press the push-
button again, the original transmitter ID will remain in effect.
Advanced Installations: Set a New Transmitter ID on the ISS
Note:
In most cases, it will not be necessary to change the transmitter ID. If it is necessary to change the trans-

you must use the same ID for the ISS and console
.
The Vantage Vue ISS transmits weather information to the Vantage Vue console using one of
eight selectable transmitter IDs. The default transmitter ID for both the ISS and the Vantage
Vue console is 1. Change the transmitter ID if another Davis Instruments wireless weather sta-

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. 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 num-
ber 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.)
