Station Configuration

You may enter information which will help to identify a particular station and

select a number of station-specific settings.

1. Choose Station Config from the Setup menu or press Ctrl-C.

The Station Configuration dialog box appears.

2. Enter the following information:

▲

Name

Enter the desired station name in this text box. Note that when you first

create a station, the software uses the first eight characters of the station

name as the name of the directory into which it saves this station’s data-

base and configuration files. If you change the station name, the software

will prompt you to change the name of the station directory.

▲

Model

Select the weather station model from the drop-down list. Select “Vantage

Pro” or “Vantage Pro Plus” if the list does not include “Envoy”.

▲ Rain Collector

Select the increment in which the rain collector you use with the station

measures rainfall. If you do not have a rain collector, choose None.

▲

Optional Accessories

Check each of the listed optional sensors that are installed in your weather

station.

▲ Download Options

The software can automatically create a space-delimited text file contain-

ing two-days worth of data records after each download. To enable this

feature, check the box. The file is named “download.txt” and is saved into

the station directory.
