Using Your Weather Station
The console LCD screen and keyboard provide easy access to your weather information. The
LCD display shows current and past weather conditions as well as a forecast of future
conditions. The keyboard controls console functions for viewing current and historical
weather information, setting and clearing alarms, viewing and/or changing station settings,
setting up and viewing graphs, and more.
Console Modes
The Vantage Vue console operates in five different modes:
