1. Press the + and - keys to cycle through time zones.
2. If your time zone is not shown, press 2ND then press the + and - keys to set your UTC

offset (UTC offset uses 15 minute increments).

3. Press DONE to select the time zone or UTC offset shown on the screen and move to the

next screen.

Screen 3: Daylight Saving Settings

In most of the United States and Canada (except Saskatchewan, Arizona, and Hawaii) and
Europe you should use the AUTO Daylight Saving setting. The console is pre-programmed to
use the correct starting and stopping dates for daylight saving time in these areas, based on the
time zone setting in Screen 2: Time Zone.
Weather stations located outside the United
States, Canada, and Europe, or in areas that
do not observe daylight saving time should
use the MANUAL setting.

1. Press the + and - keys to choose Auto or Manual.
2. Press DONE to move to the next screen.

Screen 4: Daylight Saving Status

Use this screen to either verify the correct
automatic daylight saving status or to set
daylight saving manually.

1. If the daylight saving setting is MANUAL,

press the + and - keys to turn daylight saving time on or off on the appropriate days of the
year. This will advance the time by one hour. (Similarly, if you turn daylight saving time
off, the time will be set back one hour.)
If you have an AUTO daylight saving setting, the console displays the appropriate setting
based on the current time and date.

2. Press DONE to move to the next screen.

Screen 5: Active Transmitters

Screen 5 displays the message “Receiving from...” and shows the ID number of any
transmitters being received by the console. The rest of the screen is blank.
If your ISS uses the factory settings and your
console is receiving the signal, the screen
displays “RECEIVING FROM 1.” The antenna
icon displays if any station’s signal has been
received. The antenna icon will not display if
the console has not received a signal from a station.
If you have installed a Vantage Pro2 ISS or Anemometer Transmitter kit, or if a nearby
neighbor has a Davis weather station, or if you are receiving from another console in
retransmit mode, its ID number will also be displayed.
