Both the transmitter and receiver have a set of dip switches which enable you
to change the ID code and warnings settings.
Setting the ID Code
The wireless weather station may be set to use any of eight selectable ID codes
(the default is ID Code #1). The transmitter and receiver will only communi-
cate with each other if they are both set to the same ID code. Use the default
setting unless you have another Davis wireless weather station operating
nearby which you want to work separately from the new system. The dip
switch settings for the eight possible codes are shown below.
To change to another ID, toggle dip switches 1, 2, and/or 3 on both the trans-
mitter and receiver to the desired code. Remember that the transmitter and
receiver must use the same ID code in order to communicate. If, later, you ever
want to change ID codes, remember that you will need to remove and reapply
power to the console before the changes take effect.
Note:
Dip switch #4 is used for testing and warnings, not for ID codes.
