Vantage Vue Alarms
Special Alarms
ET (Evapotranspiration) (Optional)
ET is updated only once an hour, on the hour. If during a given hour the ET 
value exceeds the alarm threshold, the ET alarm sounds at the end of that hour. 
This is true for daily, monthly, and yearly ET alarms. You must have the 
optional solar radiation sensor to use this alarm. See “Evapotranspiration (ET)” 
on page 46 for a description of this variable.
Note: The ET Alarm is only available when the console is receiving data from a Vantage Pro2 
Plus station. If your Vantage Vue console is not listening to a Vantage Pro2 Plus ISS, you 
cannot set an ET alarm. 
Barometric Pressure
The Vantage Vue allows you to set two barometric pressure alarms: a “rise” 
alarm and a “fall” alarm. You may select any rate of change per three hours 
between 0.00 and 0.25 inches (6.35 mm) Hg, (8.5 mb, hPa). The alarm will 
sound if the rate of change (in either direction) exceeds the threshold you set. 
This alarm is updated every minute.
