WeatherLink software is compatible with computers running various Windows platforms. WeatherLink with serial
connection (# 6510SER, 6540, 6544, 6550, 6560) is compatible with computers running the following platforms: 98,
98SE, ME, 2000, XP, or Vista with Microsoft .NET 2.0 framework. Requires at least one free serial port and 5 MB
of free disk space.
WeatherLink with a USB connection (# 6510USB) is compatible with computers running the following platforms:
98SE, 2000, XP, or Vista and requires t least one free USB port and 5 MB free disk space with Microsoft .NET 2.0
framework. Requires at least one free USB port and 5 MB of free disk space.
The amount of disk space necessary for the data files depends on the archive interval. Each archive record in the
database is 88 bytes. Every day in the database has an additional two records totalling 176 bytes that store daily
summary information. A database containing data stored at a 30-minute archive interval requires approximately 4400
bytes of disk space per day or 132 KB of disk space per month. The file size changes in a linear fashion depending
on the archive interval. For example, data stored at a one-minute interval requires approximately 3.9 MB a month
while the data stored at a two-hour interval requires approximately 33 KB a month.
For phone modem connections, the following additional hardware is required: One external modem to connect to the
WeatherLink and one internal modem or external modem connected to your computer (modems must be Hayes
compatible), and Telephone Modem Adapter (#6533).
