Additional Components on Vantage Pro

Plus

Vantage Pro

Plus

also includes an

ultraviolet (UV) sensor and a solar
radiation sensor. These two sensors are
on the rain collector side of your ISS.

Note:

Please make every effort when handling your
ISS not to touch the small white diffusers on
top of the UV and solar radiation sensors. Oil
from the skin will reduce their sensitivity.
Clean the diffusers using ethyl alcohol on a

soft cloth (NOT rubbing alcohol).

Once you have mounted the ISS in its
final location, use the bubble level on
each sensor as a guide to verify that the
sensor is level. (To adjust, tighten or
loosen the screws holding the sensor on
the shelf.)

Each sensor has 3' (0.9

m) of cable. If you need to position the sun sensors away

from the rain collector side, use

extension cables #7876

.

Note:

Not all cables are compatible with your Vantage Pro system. To be sure they will work, order

Davis extension cables from your dealer or directly from Davis Instruments.

To upgrade your Vantage Pro to Vantage Pro

Plus,

ISS” on page 28.
