The ConsoleLink Transmitter (Tx) connects to a host Weather Monitor II,

Weather Wizard II & III, or Perception II. The ConsoleLink Tx transmits

weather data from your host station to other DavisTalk™ compatible consoles

and receiving units. This allows you to send weather data to one or more loca-

tions without using any wires.

Providing you have the necessary sensors, the ConsoleLink Tx will send the

following weather data:

The ConsoleLink Tx is user-conﬁgurable to communicate on one of 8 different

ID codes. This allows multiple systems to coexist in the same geographical

area. The unit includes a pass-thru connector so that a WeatherLink data logger

can still be used with the host station.

Note:

The ConsoleLink Tx operates on a low power frequency that does not require you to obtain an

FCC license.
