Setting the Transmitter ID
Setting the Console Station ID using WeatherLink
You can also set the console ID for your Temp/Hum Station from WeatherLink
version 5.2 or later.
• In WeatherLink 5.2 and 5.3 set the station type to ISS (TEMP/HUM).
• In WeatherLink 5.4 or later set the station type to TEMP HUM 4x.
Note:
These settings are required because of changes made to the transmitter in this
version of the Temp/Hum Station.
Viewing Current Temperature and Humidity
1. On the console, press the TEMP key until you see an ‘outside’ temperature
displayed on the console screen, with the correct Station No. displayed
above or below it.
2. Do the same with the HUM key.
3. This confirms communication between your Temp/Hum Station and the
console. If you are not receiving the sensor readings on the console go the
the next section, “No Communication with Temp/Hum Station”.
4. Close the SIM housing cover. See page 3.
5. Go on to “Choosing a Location for the Temp/Hum Station” on page 7.
No Communication with Temp/Hum Station
1. First, verify that the console is powered and is not in Setup Mode (exit Setup
Mode by pressing DONE key and holding it for a moment).
2. On the Temp/Hum Station, check that the battery is properly installed.
3. Walk around the room with the console, standing for a few moments in var-
ious locations to see if you are picking up signals.
4. If you don’t see readings no matter where you stand with the console, put
the transmitter on your Temp/Hum Station in TEST mode.
TEST mode
DIP switch #4 on the SIM (see illustration on page 5) is the TEST DIP-switch.
Switch it to the ON position using a ball-point pen or paper clip. This puts the
transmitter in Test Mode. An LED indicator light will flash each time it
transmits:
• The LED will immediately flash once to show that the light itself func-
tions.
• Then it will flash each time the transmitter broadcasts a signal, which
should be every 10 seconds.
If the LED flashes only once and then remains dark, there is a problem with the
transmitter. See “Contacting Davis Instruments” on page 11.
If the LED flashes repeatedly but your console isn’t picking up a signal
anywhere in the room, it could be related to one of the following causes:
