Technical Help for Existing Vantage Pro 2 customers:
If you have a Davis and want to convert it to use our software then follow these directions:
To change to serial connection while still using the USB follow these steps:
Note: Once the data logger has been assigned this unique serial number, it cannot be converted back to emulate a serial port connection within the software.
Included with the WeatherLink software is a utility that allows you to convert a USB data logger from a direct USB data logger back to a USB data logger that emulates the serial port. To use this utility, select Convert USB to Virtual Serial in your WeatherLink program group on the Start menu of your computer .
Click to : C:\WeatherLink\Support\Utilities and choose CP210X USB to Serial Converter.exe
then run the utility to convert your data logger. Please contact Davis Technical Support at (“Contacting Davis Technical Support” on page 26) for more information if you have additional problems.
