The Vantage Vue

TM

 Wireless Integrated Sensor Suite (ISS) collects outside weather 

data and sends the data wirelessly to a Vantage Vue console via a low-power radio. 
The ISS is solar powered and includes a battery back-up. 

The Vantage Vue ISS contains a rain collector, temperature/humidity sensor, 
anemometer, and wind vane. The outside temperature/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 the wind vane 
measures wind direction. See “Choosing a Location for the ISS” on page 8 for siting 
guidelines. 

The Sensor Interface Module (SIM) is housed within the ISS and comprises the 
“brains” of the Vantage Vue system and the radio transmitter. The SIM collects 
outside weather data from the ISS sensors and transmits that data to your Vantage 
Vue console. 

Note: 

Your Vantage Vue ISS can transmit to an unlimited number of consoles, so you can purchase additional 
consoles to use in different rooms. It can also transmit to Vantage Pro2 consoles as well as Vantage Vue 
consoles. 

The ISS comes with all the components and hardware shown in the following two 
illustrations.
