2.0 SOFTWARE INSTALLATION
InteliMet Advantage 6 is a completely integrated weather station capable of reading a variety of
meteorological sensors. Sensor readings are then stored in data logger’s memory. Data from the logger is
available for down load using support software. Downloaded data contains measurements from individual
sensors at the interval defined in the program and calculated ETP in mm/hour using Lascano-Van Bavel
Evapotranspiration (ETP) algorithm on an hourly basis. InteliMet Advantage 6 weather station is based on
CR200 data logger. Hence, can be operated using any of the following data logger support software,
PC200w – Included as standard with the weather station IMET-ADV, direct
connection with logger / PC only.
PC400 – Option for dial-up, RF MODEMs, and point to multi-point loggers
LoggerNet – Comprehensive networking options, with scheduling automatic data
retrieval and pakbus protocol networks. All communication links are supported: RF,
Tel MODEM, LANs, etc.
Each InteliMet Advantage 6 weather station is supplied with PC200w software in a CD along with CR200
programs to read sensors and calculate ETP.
For the procedure to connect, program and download data, refer to chapter 5. In this manual we describe
working with InteliMet Advantage 6 weather station using PC200w. Full capabilities of InteliMet
Advantage 6 weather station is obtained by using two sets of software programs,
1.
Data logger support software - PC200w
2.
Data logger program IMET_MP2_Main.CR2 to load in to CR200 data logger for reading
variety of weather sensors, compute weather data and ETP from electrical measurements
and store to logger memory. A test program Imet_MP2_Tst.CR2 is also supplied for
setting up or troubleshooting.
3.
In addition custom weather station configurations may require a modified version of
ImetCust1.cr2 program.
