Wireless Repeater Configuration
Vantage Pro2 Wireless Repeaters (#7626, #7627) or Long-Range Wireless Repeaters
(#7653, #7654) can be added to increase transmission distances or improve
transmission quality between a station and a console. A repeater receives information
transmitted from a Vantage Vue or Vantage Pro2 station and retransmits it to a
console. Depending on transmission distance, one repeater or several repeaters can be
used to collect and retransmit weather data.
All consoles communicating with repeaters must be set up with the correct
Transmitter ID and Repeater ID before the console can correctly receive station
information.
