1.Put the weather station into Synchronize mode.

2.Put the software into Synchronize mode.

PUTTING THE HEAVY WEATHER PRO SOFTWARE IN SYNCHRONIZE MODE

SYNCHRONIZING DURING (OR IMMEDIATELY AFTER) INSTALLATION

If you begin the synchronizing process directly from the installation, you will see a dialog on your computer like the one below.

If you see this dialog, skip to the section on Putting the Weather Station in

Synchronize Mode.

SYNCHRONIZING ANY TIME (OTHER THAN DURING INSTALLATION OF THE SOFTWARE)

If for any reason the weather station and USB communication device/software lose connection with each other (replacing the batteries, shut down of the computer, etc), or if you are setting up the Heavy Weather Pro software for the first time and did not synchronize with the software during installation, you can always redo the synchronization.

To start the synchronization process manually:

Locate the menu bar at the top of the Heavy Weather Pro software application.

Click the “Extras” menu choice.

Select “Resynchronize”.
