Calibrating, Setting, and Clearing Variables
To fine-tune your station, you can calibrate most of the weather variables. For 
example, if your outside temperature seems consistently too high or too low, 
you can enter an offset to correct the deviation.
Calibrating Temperature And Humidity
You can calibrate inside and outside temperature; inside and outside humidity 
on your Vantage Vue. 
1. Press TEMP to select the temperature variable to be calibrated. See “Inside 
and Outside Temperature” on page 18.
2. Press and release 2ND, then press and hold SET. 
After a moment, the variable you’ve selected begins 
to blink. Keep holding SET until the Calibration 
Offset message displays in the Weather Center.
3. Press the + or - keys to add or subtract from the temperature offset value. 
Inside and outside temperature are calibrated in 0.1° F or 0.1° C increments, 
up to a maximum offset of + or -12.7 (°F or °C). The variable will change 
value and the Weather Center shows the offset you’ve entered.
4. Press DONE to exit calibration.
Calibrating Wind Direction Reading
The wind vane is calibrated at the factory to be accurate when the solar panel 
above it is pointing south. If your solar panel does not point south, you can use 
this procedure to correct the wind direction.
Note: Wind direction calibration must be done with the ISS mounted in its final position.
1. With the wind vane stationary, ascertain its actual direction. Compare it to 
the direction reading on the console.
2. Press WIND until the wind direction in degrees is displayed.
3. Press and release 2ND, then press and hold SET. The wind direction variable 
will begin to blink. 
4. Continue holding the key until “CAL” displays in the Weather Center. The 
Weather Center displays the previously set wind direction calibration value, 
if one has been set. 
5. Change the value of the wind direction in the 
compass rose based on the direction the 
anemometer is currently pointing. Due north is 
360°, east is 90°, south is 180° and west is 270°. 
6. Press the < and > keys to select digits in the 
anemometer’s current reading.
7. Press the + and - keys to set the anemometer 
reading.
8. Press DONE to exit calibration.
Note: Wind direction can not be corrected on the Vantage Vue ISS, Vantage Pro2 ISS or 
Anemometer Transmitter kit by repositioning the wind vane.
