Extending the Console Cable (Cabled ISS Only)
A cabled ISS can be extended up to 1000' (300 m) away from the console by using
Davis Instruments extension cables (#7876).
Relocating the Anemometer
Using Extension Cables:
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.
The anemometer can be extended further than 40' from the ISS 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 ISS 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).
Using the Anemometer Transmitter Kit (Wireless ISS Only)
Use the Anemometer Transmitter Kit (#6332) to add an independent wireless
transmitter to the anemometer. The kit allows the anemometer to function as a
transmitter station sending wind data directly to the console, instead of transmitting
via the ISS.
Remote Mounting the 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 ISS, you can extend the length of the sensor cables up to 125' (38 m)
with Davis Instruments extension cables (#7876).
Optional Wireless Stations
You may use our optional wireless sensor stations to collect weather measurements,
without the inconvenience of routing cables.
• Wireless Temperature Station (#6372)
• Wireless Temperature/Humidity Station (#6382)
• Wireless Leaf & Soil Moisture/Temperature Station (#6345)
