Setting Console/Receiver(s) to Same ID

1. Put your console into Setup Mode — press and hold the DONE key and

press the DOWN (-) arrow key.

• The console will show you the words: “RECEIVING FROM...” and

“STATION NO.” followed by the transmitter IDs that your console
detects. One of these should be the ID number you just set on the Leaf/
Soil Station transmitter.

• If you don’t see it, make sure the console is within 10' of the transmitter,

and verify that you set the DIP switches correctly. Wait a few seconds
and if you still don’t see it, go to “Troubleshooting Communication Prob-
lems”
on the next page.

2. Press the DONE key to move on to “Screen 2: Selecting Transmitters.”

Setup Mode – Screen 2 is where you will set the console to recognize signals
on that ID as coming from a Leaf/Soil Station.

3. Press the LEFT (<) or RIGHT (>) arrow key, or the STATION key, to scroll

through transmitter IDs.

• When you see the ID you chose for the Leaf/Soil Station, use the UP (+)

or DOWN (-) arrow keys to activate reception of that ID code. Make sure
the screen shows “ON”.

4. Press the GRAPH key to configure the station type in the console. The Leaf/

Soil Station can be configured as a LEAF/SOIL station, as a LEAF station, or
as a SOIL station.

• Configure it as a LEAF Station if you are only using it for leaf wetness

and temp.

• Configure it as a SOIL station if you are only using it for soil moisture

and temp.

• Configure it as a LEAF/SOIL station if you are using it for both leaf wet-

ness and soil moisture.

5. To exit Setup Mode, press and hold the DONE key.

Note: See the Vantage Pro User’s Manual & Setup Guide: “Setup Mode – Screen 2:

Selecting Transmitters” for more information.
