Hi.
Describe the crux of the problems. I have:
- solar powered wireless sensor transmitter with the anemometer (product number:6332);
- Envoy8X (productnumber: 6318);
- wireless Vantage Pro2 with standard radiation shield (product number: 6152);
- WeatherLink USB data logger (productnumber: 6510USB);
The anemometer is connected to the Solar powered Wireless Sensor Transmitter, but the Envoy8X "sees" only the signal from the ISS. And there are no indications of wind speed and direction. Though on the console these indications are. The default ISS is configured on the first channel, and the Solar powered Wireless Sensor Transmitter with the anemometer is configured on the second. What do I need to do in order for the envoy 8x to start reading the anemometer readings? I tried enabling retransmiting mode on the console, but it didn't help.
Thanks. ](*,)

You'll need a copy of Weatherlink installed on your PC with the USB connected.  Shutdown other weather programs using that USB connection.

Setup Weatherlink to use that USB connection.  I think the initial setup wizard will guide you through this.  But under one area is the "Set Transceiver" option.  Under there you will add in your wind as transmitter 2.  Then you can close Weatherlink and fire up your other software.

You probably need to setup and configure the Envoy8x using WDTU

Learned something new.  Envoy 8x needs different software.
