The Integrated Sensor Suite (ISS) collects outside weather data and sends the data to a 
Vantage Pro2 console or Weather Envoy. Wireless and cabled versions of the ISS are 
available, as well as Standard and Plus versions. The Wireless ISS is solar powered and 
sends data to the console via a low-power radio. The Cabled ISS sends data and receives 
power via the console cable. 

The Standard version of the ISS contains a rain collector, temperature sensor, humidity 
sensor and anemometer. In addition to the standard weather features, the ISS Plus adds a 
pre-installed solar radiation sensor and an ultra-violet (UV) radiation sensor. Temperature 
and humidity sensors are mounted in a passive radiation shield to minimize the impact of 
solar radiation on sensor readings. The anemometer measures wind speed and direction 
and can be installed adjacent to the ISS or apart from it. See “Locating the ISS and 
Anemometer” on page 15 for siting guidelines. 

On an ISS Plus, the additional solar and UV sensors are mounted next to the rain 
collector cone. Solar and UV sensors are available separately to upgrade a standard ISS.

The Sensor Interface Module (SIM) contains the “brains” of the ISS and the radio 
transmitter. The SIM is located on the front of the radiation shield in the SIM box. The 
SIM collects outside weather data from the ISS sensors and then transmits the data to 
your Vantage Pro2 console or Weather Envoy. 

The ISS comes with all the components and hardware shown in the following 
illustrations. If you purchased your ISS as part of a weather station package containing 
the Vantage Pro2 console, additional components may be included in the package that are 
not shown here.
