Program Problems

• Check the Baud Rate setting on the console and in the serial port dialog

box in the software. Make sure they’re set to the same number.

Note: Enter the console’s Setup Mode by pressing and holding the DONE key, then press-

ing the DOWN arrow key on the console. Scroll through the setup choices by press-

ing the BAR or DONE keys until you reach the Baud Rate screen. This screen only

appears if the data logger is plugged into the console.

• Vantage Pro Only - Enter the console’s Setup Mode by pressing and

holding the [DONE] key, then pressing the [-] key on the console. Scroll

through the setup choices by pressing the [BAR] or [DONE] keys until

you reach the Baud Rate screen. This screen only appears if the data

logger is plugged into the console.

• Monitor, Wizard and Perception Only - Check the switch setting on the

data logger. It will be set to either 1200 or 2400 Baud.

If you still cannot connect or if the loopback test identifies the serial

port you already have selected, eliminate the following possibilities. If

you have questions on how to proceed, contact your PC vendor or PC

technical support.

▲ You have a hardware device conflict.

Check the device manager tab in the Windows® system properties dialog

box to ensure that Windows recognizes your COM port. Consult your pc’s

documentation to see how to access the system properties dialog box.

▲ Your serial port uses a non-standard device name.

WeatherLink recognizes serial ports named COM1 through COM10 only.

To use a modem, you must specify the underlying COM port on your PC.

To find out which port the modem’s connected to, you can look in Win-

dows’ System Properties > Device Manager > “modem name” Properties >

Modem > Port, where “modem name” is the name of the modem you have

installed.

▲ Your serial port is defective.

▲ The loopback connector or the WeatherLink adapter plug is bad.

Program Problems

When you first load the bulletin, the barometer graph will only fill in com-

pletely when you have data in your database for the last six hours. Make sure

of the following:

▲ There is data in your database for the span of the barometer graph.

▲ The time and date of the stored barometer data is correct in your database.

▲ The time and date on the PC is correct.

▲ The time and date on the weather station are correct.
