Vantage Pro2 weather
stations are available in both wireless and cabled versions. All include a
console with LCD display, the innovative integrated sensor suite, which
combines the rain collector, temperature and relative humidity sensors, and
anemometer all into one package. Making setup easier than ever and improving
performance and reliability. The WeatherLink software allows automated internet
uploads if a DSL or broadband connection is available. You can easily customize
your weather station by adding additional consoles or additional sensors.
The cabled Vantage Pro2™
weather stations are provided with a 100 foot cable to link the integrated
sensor suit to the display console.
The wireless Vantage Pro2™
weather stations are the first and only weather stations in their price range
to use frequency hopping spread spectrum radio technology. Our wireless weather
stations transmit and receive data up to 1000 feet line of site
The ISS (Integrated sensor
suite) supplied with all weather stations, includes the rain collector,
temperature and relative humidity sensors, wind speed anemometer and wind
direction sensor. The ISS can be pole mounted as per the photograph or mounted
on a flat surface, like a fence post.
The rain collector uses an aluminum
plated tipping bucket which is self emptying, corrosion resistant and laser
calibrated for exceptional accuracy. The rain collector can be configured to
measure in metric or imperial units and meets the World Meteorological Organization
guidelines, measuring rainfall in 0.2mm or 0.01" increments.
The temperature and
relative humidity sensors are mounted below the rain collector inside a
radiation shield. The radiation shield protects the sensors from solar
radiation and other sources of radiated or reflected heat.
The wireless ISS runs on
solar power during the day with a lithium battery providing backup through the
night or on cloudy days.
The Vantage Pro2 console
provides a large (9cm x 15 cm) clear display showing all measure parameters.
The display updates every 2.5 seconds, ensuring you are always up to date with
changing weather conditions. The display console is powered using the provided
AC power adaptor. The console will also run on three C size batteries (not
supplied) for continuous monitoring during power outages.
Additional wireless Vantage
Pro2 consoles can be used to receive the signals from the integrated sensor
suite.
Both the cable and wireless
versions of the Vantage Pro2 console have an expansion port that allows a data
logger module to be plugged in. Available in both USB and 9 pin serial
variants, the data logging module stores all readings until they are downloaded
to a computer using the optional WeatherLink™ software
For the ultimate in weather
monitoring, add WeatherLink™ to any of our Vantage Pro2 weather stations. The data logger
module fits neatly into the weather console, storing weather data even when
it's not connected to your PC. Later, download the data and use the software
for detailed analysis and graphing. With the latest version of the WeatherLink™
software, automatic uploads to your own website are possible if a broadband or DSL
connection is present.
