Wireless Temperature/Humidity Station
Configuring Communications
Each wireless transmitting station must be set to one of eight DavisTalk transmitter IDs,
and each station must use a unique transmitter ID. Use the transmitter ID switches #1, 2
and 3 to set the station’s ID. Switch #4 is only used for transmission testing.
Note: The transmitter and receiver communicate with each other only when both are set
to the same DavisTalk ID.
Setting the Transmitter ID
The factory default transmitter ID is “1”. Looking at the table shown below you can see
that means the transmitter ID switches are in the OFF position when each transmitting
station leaves the factory.
Your Fan-Aspirated Temp/Hum Station requires a different DavisTalk transmitter ID
than your Integrated Sensor Suite (ISS) or any other DavisTalk-compatible wireless sta-
tion you may be using.
Use a ballpoint pen or paper clip to toggle DIP switches #1, 2, and 3. The settings for
transmitter IDs 1 – 8 are shown in the following table:
