Local Connection Installation
1. Make a note of the barometric pressure, total rainfall, and (if applicable)
calibration numbers.
You must remove power from the weather station console to install the
data logger. Removing power will cause these stored weather values to be
erased. Use WeatherLink to reenter these values after restoring power to
the console.
2. Remove the mounting base from the console.
3. Remove all power from the console by removing the power adapter and
battery backup.
Failure to remove power before installing the data logger may cause
damage to the data logger and/or console.
4. A small switch near the data logger cables controls the baud rate. The
default setting is 2400 baud. If you need to run at 1200 baud, change the
setting before connecting the data logger to the console.
5. Connect the short data logger cable to the cable jack marked
“WeatherLink” on the bottom of your weather station console.
6. Restore power to the console by reattaching the power adapter and listen
for the console to emit beeps.
The console should beep three times. The third beep, which should occur
within 30 seconds, indicates that the data logger is operating correctly.
After hearing the three beeps, re-install the battery backup.
