The factory default transmitter ID is ‘1’. Looking at the table below, you can
see that means the DIP switches are in the OFF position when each
transmitting station leaves the factory. This is true for all of Davis’ wireless
equipment.
The default setting on a Wireless Vantage Pro console is “ON (ISS).” The ISS
is included with every Wireless Vantage Pro, so the console/receiver is set to
find the ISS on DavisTalk channel 1.
Verify the DavisTalk channel used by your ISS, as well as any other
DavisTalk channels already in use by your Vantage Pro Weather Station
Configure the Soil Moisture Station to a DavisTalk channel not already in
use.
Use a ballpoint pen or paper clip to toggle DIP switches #1, 2, and 3. The
settings for transmitter IDs 1 – 8 are shown in the table below:
Use this table to ensure that each wireless transmitting station in your
system is broadcasting on its own transmitter ID.
