The smartbedded "Meteostick" allows to directly read of RF data from Davis® Vantage^TM Pro2, Vantage^TM Pro2 Plus and Vantage^TM Sensors. This includes

integrated sensor suites ISS
additional sensors temperature/humidity stations
additional wind or rain stations
additional soil/leaf stations

Read-out is done parallel to the Davis consoles, so you have no interring with any PC solution that uses a data logger connected to the console or Envoy. Meteostick is fully integrated into latest releases of Meteobridge and Meteohub. While Meteobridge only supports one integrated sensor suite, Meteohub (version 4.9x) can read out data from up to 8 stations in parallel. Third party software can be easily adapted to also make use of Meteostick, as the protocol how to interact with Meteostick in terms of a serial connection via USB is fully documented.

For more details, please have a reading of the manual [here www.smartbedded.com/files/ms-manual-en.pdf].

Der "direct connect kit" von smartbedded ermöglicht die kabelgebundenen Sensor Einheiten der Davis® Vantage Pro2^TM und Vantage Pro2 Plus^TM direkt an einem Meteohub/Meteoplug ohne Konsole und Data Logger zu betreiben. Mit dieser Lösung erhält man direkten Zugriff auf die Daten der Sensoreinheit. Es werden ausschließlich kabelgebundene Sensoreinheiten unterstützt (Davis® Teilenummern: 6152C, 6162C, 6327C, 6322C).

Die von den Sensoreinheiten empfangenen Daten enthalten keine Innentemperatur und Innenfeuchtigkeit, sowie keine Luftdruckinformationen, da diese Daten durch Sensoren in der Konsole und nicht in der Sensoreinheit gemessen werden. Der "direct connect kit" speist die angeschlossene Sensoreinheit mit Strom. Man muss also lediglich den "direct connect kit" an die USB Buchse des Meteohub/Meteoplug anschließen und das von der Sensoreinheit kommende Anschlusskabel in die RJ11 Buchse des "direct connect kit" einstecken. Bei Bedarf kann über einen beigefügten Adapter zusätzlich die Vantage^TM Konsole parallel angeschlossen werden.

Eine detaillierte Beschreibung, wie das "direct connect kit" installiert und verwendet wird, findet sich hier.

Hinweis: Meteohub muss auf den Versionsstand 4.8 oder neuer gebracht werden, um das "direct connect kit" zu unterstützen.

-[[File:usa-bullet-40.png|left|40px|caption]]The smartbedded "direct connect kit" allows you to directly connect your Davis® Vantage Pro2<sup>TM</sup>  and Vantage Pro2 Plus<sup>TM</sup>  cabled sensor unit to a Meteohub/Meteoplug without the need of a console or data logger. This gives you direct access to the data as it comes from the sensor unit. Only cabled sensor units are supported (Davis® part numbers: 6152C, 6162C, 6327C, 6322C).

-Received data does not include indoor temperature and humidity and does not include pressure as these values are measured in the Vantage<sup>TM</sup> console, not in the sensor unit. The "direct connect kit" does also provide power for the cabled sensor unit. All you have to to is to plugin the kit into a USB port of your Meteohub/Meteoplug and to connect the RJ11 cable of your sensor with the RJ11 jack of this kit. By the help of an adapter included in the kit you can connect the console in parallel as well.
-A detailed description how to install and to use the "direct connect kit" can be found [http://www.smartbedded.com/files/direct-connect-kit-eng.pdf here].
-Remark: You need to update your Meteohub to version 4.8 or newer to make use of the "direct connect kit".
