3. Technical specifications
(continuation)
This product is a wind sensor instrument and it has been
engineered for the sole use of accurately measure wind
speed and direction using ultrasonic transducers. The
product includes some secondary sensors in addition,
such as thermometer, gyroscope and accele- rometer.
These secondary sensors are not meant to be
Wind speed
Range: 0 - 25 m/s
Resolution: ±0.1 m/s at 10m/s
Wind direction
Range: 0 - 360°
Resolution: ± 1°

3. Technical specifications
(continuation)
You can mount your Ultrasonic in a simple way since it
comes with a threaded lower part (16 mm M16
× 2 female
thread).
A wide range of accessories
can be used with the device
How can I do that?
Follow the next steps:
1. To check the avai ¦ abi ¦ ity of the new firmware version,
p ¦ ease visit our webpage and down ¦ oad the fi ¦ e.
2. Download and install Rigado Toolbox App on your
device from Google Play or Apple Store.
3. Enter to the App pressing on its icon.
4. Select the correct Ultrasonic (taking into reference the
serial number/MAC address). Then the App will try to
connect with the unit.
5. The connection is successful when the word "CONNEC-
TED" appears at the top.
6. Se ¦ ect "F ¦ RMWARE UPDATE" – Se ¦ ect first option

mation to enhance the product experience for the end
user. Sensor are also useful for developers and profes-
sional users that will properly treat and filter the output
signal. For instance, having a temperature reading does
not turn the wind instrument into a sun-shielded scienti-
fic thermometer. These secondary sensors are not
calibrated and should not be used.

8. Then, data has been updated on the main screen.
9. Select “Activation Characteristic” - A pop-up window
will appear on the main screen - select it.
Ultrasonic transducers (4x)
The Ultrasonic Portable has been designed to avoid any
mechanical parts to maximize reliability and minimize
maintenance.
The transducers communicate between themselves two
by two using ultrasonic range waves. Each couple of
transductors calculate the signal delay and get informa-
tion about both, wind direction and wind speed.
Sample rate: 1, 4, 8 Hz
Sample rate con choosen through the application the
range of data you want to extract.
If the battery level is not up to 20%, you can only get infor-
mation at 1Hz.
The U ¦ trasonic Portab ¦ e is been certified by an approved
independent laboratoty as IPX8. In order to get that IPX8
code certificacion, ULTRASON
¦ C PORTABLE has success-
fully passed a 30 minutes water immersion test at a depth
of 10 meters (1bar) with no water ingress. We have also
run more severe tests in house with successfull results
(even though they are not certified).
However, reaching IPx8 30 min-10 m does not yield
warranty of waterproofness at 10 m. The same rationale
applies to swimming watches; a watch needs to be tested
at 30-50 meters depth to be considered water-resistant at
a swimming depth of around 1 meter. For going deeper
than (snorkeling, diving) watches are individually tested up
to 200-500 m!
Several factors might affect Ultrasonic watertightness:
rubber seals and plastics wear and tear, drastic tempera-
ture changes (hot air then cold water), previous impacts,
pressure increase rate(immersion velocity), waterdensity
and temperature, under-water speed and acceleration, ...
This is why we do certify that our Ultrasonic is IPX8 30
min-10 m but we cannot warranty that is waterproof at
10 m.

You can update the U ¦ trasonic Portab ¦ e firmware via B ¦ ue-
tooth.
10. Another pop-up window will appear on the main
screen - you have to rearch the correct one (in which the
combination “0000A00A” appears) - Select it.
11. Then, data has been updated on the main screen.
12. Select “Activation Command” - The keyboard will be
uncovered to indicate command“01”.
13. Press “BEGIN FIRMWARE UPDATE” .
14. A new window will appear with the progress.
15. When the process is completed, a pop-up window will
appear indicating the completed update and requesting
the Bluetooth reset.
16. Select “RESET BLUETOOTH”
17. The App directs you to the Bluetooth options. It
connects again and you already have your unit updated!
If any error appears during the update process, please
repeat all steps from the beginning.
