Wireless Temperature Station
The Wireless Temperature Station for Wireless Vantage Pro2™ allows
you to place an extra temperature sensor anywhere within the transmission range of your wireless Vantage Pro2
console. The temperature station communicates directly to your Vantage Pro2 console/receiver over any one of eight
user-selectable ID codes, and has a transmitting range of between 200' to 1000' (75 to 300 m) depending upon the
environment. The temperature sensor is a precision thermistor that produces a resistance change proportional to
temperature. It is battery powered.
