Changing Batteries
If the message, LOW CONSOLE BATTERIES appears in the Weather Center, replace the
batteries.
1. In order to avoid losing any stored weather data, plug in the AC adapter before removing
the batteries.
Note: If you cannot plug in the AC adapter, enter Setup Mode by pressing and releasing 2ND and
pressing SETUP. Entering Setup Mode makes sure the station isn’t writing any data to
memory when power is removed.
2. Remove the battery cover located on the back of the console by pressing down on the two
latches at the top of the cover.
3. In the top battery compartment, insert a fingertip between the battery and the notched end
of the compartment and remove the battery.
4. Repeat the process for the batteries in the bottom battery compartment.
5. Install the new batteries. (See “Installing Batteries” on page 3.)
6. Replace the battery cover and remove the AC power adapter, if desired.
Console Firmware Versions
From time to time Davis engineers update the Vantage Vue console
firmware. View the firmware version in Value 4 in the Statistical
Diagnostic screen, or by pressing and holding DONE and + from
the Current Weather Mode screen.
You can check the firmware version currently available and download, at no charge, the
newest firmware to your console on the Weather Software Support section of our website
(http://www.davisnet.com/support). A WeatherLink data logger is required to update the
firmware into the console.
