Set Transceiver

Use the Set Transceiver dialog box to view and/or configure your Vantage Vue,
Vantage Pro or Pro2 console or Weather Envoy transmitter ID and repeater ID
assignments and to control the retransmit function.

Note:

This dialog box is the only available tool for configuring the transmitter ID and
repeater ID settings on your Weather Envoy.

To set transceiver options:
1. Select Set Transceiver from the Setup menu; the dialog box displays.

If you have a Vantage Vue console, or a Vantage Pro2 console or Envoy with
firmware dated May 2005 or later (or version 1.6 or later), the Set Trans-
ceiver
dialog box displays with special functionality related to repeater use.

2. Select a Station Type for each of the possible 8 channels the Envoy may be

receiving. See the WeatherLink Online Help System for more information
on configuring the stations, the retransmit feature and configuring the
Envoy for using repeaters.
