As part of pre-delivery testing, all units are programmed with the latest firmware version, however, as each user have their own specific settings, users need to configure some items, and reprogram the firmware.
Configuring the firmware doesn't require software programming skills, however knowledge on how to upload the firmware to ESP32 devices, using Arduino IDE, is required.
First time programming should be done using the USB port of the 4Pro DB receiver, after that, the receiver can be programmed / updated via OTA.
Before compiling, on Arduino IDE choose: Tools --> Board: --> Esp32 Arduino --> MH ET LIVE ESP32MiniKit

Despite there are some advanced settings, in general, configuring the WeatherDuino firmware is almost self-explanatory, as shown in examples bellow.

Overview:

Like its predecessors, the WeatherDuino 4Pro Dual Band, emulates the Davis Vantage Pro2 communication protocol, and works in much the same way.
To connect it to any weather software, just choose Davis Vantage Pro2 as the station model. Besides connection by USB, a new capability of the 4Pro DB is the connection by TCP/IP, this new features brings several advantages, among them, is faster, and doesn't require a physical connection between the receiver and the device that runs the weather software.

WeatherDuino 4Pro Dual Band support up to seven extra sensors, four soil temperature / humidity sensors and four leaf wetness sensors. A Davis compatible hardware data logger, is also included.

The 4Pro Dual Band, can receive simultaneously data from WeatherDuino transmitters operating in LoRa (868Mhz EU, 915MHZ US & AU) or OOK modes (433Mhz EU & AU, 315MHz US), making of it an excellent upgrade option for existing Pro2 users, who wish to take benefit of the enhanced capabilities of the 4Pro system, but not want to replace their already installed transmitter units.

Probably, WeatherDuino were among the first to have integrated Air Quality data on their weather stations. We kept and improved this functionality in the 4Pro DB.
Used together with an WeatherDuino Air Quality Monitor, the 4Pro Dual Band will display PM2.5, PM10.0 and Air Quality Index on a dedicated data screen.
The Air Quality Index standard is user selectable (US-EPA, EU-AQI, UK-DAKI or AU AQC).

We know that many people, just would like to be able to upload their weather data to online services, without having to care about have a PC or RPi always running. The 4Pro Dual Band can send all your weather data by just using your WiFi network, to online services like Weather Underground and / or WeatherCloud.

Anywhere in your house, if you wish to quickly view the current weather conditions, just type the IP address of your 4Pro Dual Band weather station in any browser (PC or phone), and instantly you will be presented with a small web page with all weather data, including extra sensors and air quality.

User interface can be presented in several languages, such as English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Czech, Polish, Italian, Dutch and more could be added soon.

Weather data can be displayed using Metric or Imperial units, or even a mix of them. System is so flexible that, per example, you can chose to have wind in mph or knot, rain in mm, and temperature in ºC. You decide.

The WeatherDuino 4Pro Dual Band is so rich in features that its hard enumerate all of them.
