Seed Hawk™ Viper Pro™ Installation & Operation Manual

Connecting the Weather Station

If the Viper Pro is connected to a CAN control system, the weather station must be connected to the

CONSOLE connector on the Viper Pro Main Interface Cable (P/N 115-0171-746).

If the Viper Pro is connected to an external Raven serial controller, the weather station must be connected to

COM 3 on the Viper Pro Auxiliary Interface cable (P/N 115-0171-745).

If the Viper Pro is using the Viper Pro Combination cable (P/N 115-0171-744), connect the weather station to

the CONSOLE connector if using a CAN control system, or to the AUX connector if using an external Raven

serial controller.

Comm Port Configuration

Once the system is properly powered and cabled, and the activation key has been entered into the Viper Pro,

the Viper communications port must be configured for the weather station.

1.

Press Menu / Setup / Comm Ports.

2.

Press the Next button until the Weather Module Setup page is displayed.

3.

Select which comm port the station is connected to.

Note:

If you would like the weather information to be recorded to the Rbin file, which then can be
exported as a shapefile, ensure the Enable Logging to Rbin Applied Map is checked. If this
information is not needed, leave this un-checked, which will help conserve memory space on the
internal storage.

4.

Initialize Station

must be pressed one time to configure the weather station for use with the Viper Pro.

5.

Press OK to complete the set-up.
