Note: 
The signal strength information will only display in the wind compass if one of the stations the con-
sole is set to receive is configured as an ISS or Anemometer Transmitter Station. Display Screen 2 
of the Setup Mode to reconfigure a station in the network to an ISS if necessary., redisplay Current 
Weather Mode and press WIND again to view the signal strength. If there is more than one station, 
reconfigure each station the same way and repeat the process.
Repeater Functionality in WeatherLink
WeatherLink software lets you configure and maintain the network or repeaters and sta-
tions in the same way that the console is configured. WeatherLink also monitors the bat-
tery life of all transmitters and repeaters in the network. 
Note: 
If your network of transmitters and repeaters is communicating with an Envoy, WeatherLink is the 
only way the repeater and transmitter information is configured on the Envoy. If your Envoy has 
firmware older than May 2005, it does not have the capability to see and configure Vantage Pro2 
wireless repeaters. To check your Envoy’s firmware in WeatherLink, Select Console Diagnostics 
from the Reports Menu and view the firmware date displayed. If the Envoy firmware version is older 
than May 2005, a Vantage Pro2 updater can be used to update the Envoy. Contact Technical Sup-
port about acquiring an updater for your Envoy. 
Only versions of WeatherLink 5.6 or later have the capabilities necessary to configure 
and monitor repeater use.
Configuring Repeaters
With a console or Envoy connected to your computer via serial or USB data logger:
1. Select Set Transceiver from the Setup Menu. The Set Transceivers dialog box 
displays
2. Click the Enable Repeaters check box. The Repeater drop down boxes are enabled 
for the available stations.
