Display & Keyboard
The Vantage Pro display and keyboard are designed for easy access to the most
important weather information.
The keyboard allows you to interact with the station computer, view current
and historical data, set and clear alarms, change station modes, enter calibra-
tion numbers, set up and view graphs, select sensors, read the forecast, and so
on. To learn more about the keyboard, see “Keyboard” on page 26.
The Large LCD display is your window on current and past environmental
conditions, as well as the place to find the forecast. The console LCD can dis-
play up to 12 <!--what’s the real number? ticker adds many--!> weather vari-
ables at any one time. With the addition of Davis’ programmable weather
ticker, a scrolling alphanumeric display, you can completely personalize the
display to suit your needs, interests, and curiosities. To learn more about the
display’s features, see “Display” on page 21.
Console Modes

quick and easy access to the information you need:

Alarm mode allows the user to set, clear, and review alarm settings.

ties of the Vantage Pro weather computer.
