Limitation Alerts
Anemoment wants you to get the best possible use from your TSM Sensor investment, and we
understand that each User has a unique idea they want to create. You know best what you are
trying to accomplish. We know the TSM Sensors can help you access essential and actionable
wind and weather data in new places and new ways, but we cannot promise that they can do
everything or go everywhere the human mind can think up. We want to alert you to these
points up front, to empower your decisions as you plan your project.
Compact Fluorescent Lamps
Many compact florescent lamps operate at ultrasonic frequencies that interfere with
the operation of a TSM Sensor. If the TSM Sensor is operated near compact florescent
lamps, erroneous and erratic readings may result. Turning off the compact florescent
lamps or moving the TSM Sensor away from the CFL should result in proper instrument
operation.
Electro-Mechanical Motors and Magnetic Sensors
Electro-mechanical motors generate magnetic fields; the effect of the field on a
magnetic sensor varies by distance of the sensor to the motor, and by the speed (and
variations of speed) at which the motor is operated. The magnetic sensor aboard your
TSM Sensor will be affected by the field generated by motors nearby. We recommend
