Additional Mounting Options
Add-on Sensors: Use a Solar- or AC-Powered Sensor Transmitter (#6332 and
6331) to collect data from additional sensors and send it directly to your
WeatherLink Console, WeatherLink Live or other receiver. Each Sensor Transmitter
can support one each of up to five sensors: Anemometer or Sonic Anemometer,
Temperature Probe or Temperature/Humidity, Rain Collector, UV, and Solar
Radiation. This allows you to install your anemometer remotely or add on a remote
temperature station, for example. See “Using Multiple Transmitting Stations” on
page 15.
Add a Wireless Leaf & Soil Moisture/Temperature Station (#6345):
See your garden or agricultural data on your console.
Extend Wireless Transmission Range: Optional solar-powered repeaters
can be used to extend the wireless transmission range. Choose a Standard Wire-
less Repeater (#7627) or Long-Range Wireless Repeater (#7654).
Use Cables for Remote Sensor Mounting:
Note: Not all cables are compatible with your Vantage Pro2 system. To be sure they will work,
order Davis extension cables from your dealer or directly from Davis Instruments.
Anemometer: The anemometer can be extended further than 40' from the sensor
suite by using Davis Instruments extension cables (#7876).
Be aware that the maximum measurable wind speed reading decreases as the total
length of cable from the anemometer to the sensor suite increases.
Note: If the cable length is greater than 540' (165m), the maximum measurable wind speed
may be less than 100 MPH (161 km/h).
Solar Radiation and UV Sensors: The solar radiation and UV sensors have
a 3' (0.9 m) cable. If you wish to install these sensors away from the sensor suite, you
can extend the length of the sensor cables up to 125' (38 m) with Davis Instruments
extension cables (#7876).
