While your Vantage Pro2 weather station is designed to provide years of trouble-free 
operation, occasional problems may arise. If you are having a problem with your sta-
tion, please consult this troubleshooting guide before calling Davis technical support. 
You may be able to quickly solve the problem yourself. Please see “Contacting Davis 
Technical Support” on page 53.

Note: 

Refer to the ISS Installation Manual for additional troubleshooting information.

Problem

Solution

Display shows only 

“RECEIVING FROM.....”

Indicates that console has rebooted. Hold the DONE key to re-

turn to Current Weather Mode. (Check time setting if power was 

lost.)

Display is blank

Unit is not receiving power. Check the power adapter connec-

tions and/or replace batteries.

Display shows dashes in 

place of weather data

•

ISS not plugged in (cabled station). See ISS manual.

•

Sensors not transmitting (wireless station). See ISS (or oth-

er transmitter) manual.

•

•

A reading has exceeded the limits indicated in the 

specifications table.

•

Calibration numbers may be causing readings to exceed 

display limits. Check calibration number and adjust if nec-

essary.

Console is sluggish or does 

not work at low tempera-

tures

The console and display may not work below 32º F (0º C). Use 

an External Temperature sensor in low-temperature locations or 

install the console indoors.

Display shows “odd” values 

or missing values.

You may have synchronized with another weather station near-

by. Change the transmission and reception IDs to a different ID. 

Display “locks up”

Reset the console by removing AC and battery power then re-

storing power. If this occurs frequently in an AC-powered con-

sole, plug the AC power-adapter into a surge suppressor.

Inside humidity seems too 

high or too low

Make sure the console is not near a humidifier or de-humidifier. 

Check calibration number and adjust if necessary. If inside hu-

midity is low, and inside temperature is too high, see “inside 

temp” below. Also make sure the console backlight is not on.

Wind speed reading seems 

too high or too low.

For low readings, remove wind cups and check for friction 

sources. Check the anemometer location. Is it sheltered from 

the wind? See ISS manual for additional wind speed 

troubleshooting information.

Wind speed reads 0 either 

all the time or intermittently

The problem may be with the anemometer. Test anemometer 

by spinning wind cups. Check reed switch fields on diagnostic 

Dew Point reading seems 

too high or too low

Check calibration numbers for temperature. Dew point depends 

on temperature and outside humidity. Make sure they’re work-

ing.
