Screen 7: Retransmit
The console can take data it receives from all 
three station types and retransmit it to other 
Vantage Vue or Vantage Pro2 consoles using 
the retransmit feature. By toggling the feature 
on, the console becomes another transmitter 
that requires its own unique ID to transmit the data received from the ISS.
1. Press the + or - key to turn the retransmit function on and off. The first available transmitter 
Note: Make sure no other wireless Davis weather station is transmitting on the same ID. 
The Vantage Vue console can only retransmit data from either a Vantage Vue ISS or con-
sole Vantage Pro2 ISS or console. Data from other stations will not retransmit. 
When retransmit has already been enabled, pressing the < or > keys changes the transmitter 
ID used for retransmit.
2. Use the > key to scroll through the list of available transmitter IDs and select the ID for 
your console.
3. Press DONE to move to the next screen.
Note: Make a note of the ID selected for retransmit and the transmitter type (ISS or VP2) the console is 
retransmitting. Make sure the console that is receiving the retransmitted data is configured to the 
correct transmitter type. See “Screen 6: Configuring Transmitter IDs” on page 9 for more 
information.
Screens 8 and 9: Latitude and Longitude
The console uses latitude and longitude to determine your location, allowing it to adjust the 
forecast and calculate the times for sunset and sunrise.
Latitude measures distance north or south of the equator.
Longitude measures distance east or west of the Prime Meridian, an imaginary line run-
ning north and south through Greenwich, England.
If you do not know your latitude and longitude, there are several ways to find out. Many 
atlases and maps include latitude and longitude lines. You can also talk to the reference 
department of your local library, call your local airport, or search on the Internet. An easy way 
to find your latitude and longitude is to download Google Earth (http://earth.google.com).
The more accurate you are, the better; however, a reasonable estimate will work, too.
1. Press the < and > keys to move between 
fields. 
2. Press the + and - keys to change the 
settings up or down. 
3. Press 2ND and then UNITS to select 
between SOUTH or NORTH. 
4. Press DONE to move to the Longitude screen.
