Configure Frequency Based Wind Speed on 8872
A Met Card is not required for pulse / frequency input
wind speed, such as from the Met One 010C. The 8872
can use its status inputs for wind speed. The maximum
input is ~ 2 Khz.
1. Wire your sensor to the desired Status Input pair
(+ and -) .
2. In the APAX utility, right click on the 10.0.0.5
entry and chose Search.
3. Click on the entry based on the Status Input you used:
a. 10.0.0.201 for inputs 1-6
b. 10.0.0.202 for inputs 7-12
4. Expand the 6066 entry and click on the appropriate status input.
a. NOTE: the DI will be one value lower than the Status Input you chose on the back of
the 8872 (ex. Status Input 1 would be DI-0 in APAX)
5. Change the DI Mode from “DI” to “Frequency”.
