When the cell connection resumes, the Gateway will send this old data to
weatherlink.com in what we call “catchup mode.” In catchup mode, the Gateway
will send 15 records about every 2 minutes.
How can I access my data if I am on site but don't have a PC with an internet
connection?
If you urgently need to access your weather data at your remote site but have no
access to a PC with an internet connection, you can connect a laptop (or PC)
directly to the Vantage Connect and download all of the archive records in its
memory using the supplied WeatherLink software. You will need an interface
cable. Please call Technical Support to request a Vantage Connect interface cable.
Can I replace my battery?
Yes. Your Gateway comes with a battery designed to charge in temperatures as
low as -4°F/-20°C.
If you need to replace the battery and your installation is in a location with low
temperatures, you should replace the battery with a Davis battery, product number
7011.025.
If your installation is in a warmer climate, you may replace the battery with a 6-
volt, 12 Ah, gel cell battery which will only charge at temperatures above 0°C.
See Specifications on page 18.
(With either battery, your Gateway can function down to -40°F/C.)
