ANUAL
This manual describes how to install the Anemometer Transmitter Kit for a Wireless
Vantage Pro2
TM

your Integrated Sensor Suite (ISS) to its own transmitter, so it can be located away from
the ISS and communicate directly with your
console/receiver.

The Anemometer Transmitter Kit includes the following components and mounting
hardware:
1/4" Flat Washers
1/4" Lock Washers
1/4" Hex Nuts
3-Volt

8" Cable Ties

Tools for Setup
In addition to the kit, you will need some or all of the following materials:
•
Adjustable wrench or 7/16" wrench
•
Compass or local area map
•
Ballpoint pen or paper clip (small pointed object of some kind)

If You Are Installing the ISS and the Anemometer Transmitter Kit

SIM. When you have mounted the rain collector side of the ISS and are ready to mount
the anemometer, follow the instructions in this manual starting with “Preparing the
Anemometer Transmitter” on page 3.
