Seed Hawk® Viper Pro™ Installation & Operation Manual

Connecting the Weather Station

If the Viper Pro is connected to a CAN control system, the weather station must be connected to the ’COM 2/
Console’ connector on the Viper Pro main interface or chassis interface cable.

If the Viper Pro is connected to an external Raven serial controller, the weather station must be connected to
‘COM 3/Lightbar’ on the Viper Pro auxiliary interface or chassis interface cable.

If the Viper Pro is using the Viper Pro combination cable (P/N 115-0171-744), connect the weather station to
the ’Console’ connector if using a CAN control system, or to the AUX connector if using an external Raven
serial controller.

Comm Port Configuration

Once the system is properly powered and cabled, and the activation key has been entered into the Viper Pro,
the Viper communications port must be configured for the weather station.

1.

Press Menu / Setup / Comm Ports.

2.

Press the Next button until the Weather Module Setup page is displayed.

3.

Select which comm port the station is connected to.

Note:

To record information into the report file, ensure the Enable Logging is checked. If weather data
is not needed, leave this option un-checked to help conserve memory on the field computer.

4.

Initialize Station must be pressed one time to configure the weather station for use with the Viper Pro.

5.

Press OK to complete the set-up.
