If no anemometer is found then the program displays the following menu.
RCOM Gill Instruments Ltd
WARNING!
No anemometer found
Please ensure that the anemometer is connected
And that power is available
1. Search for Anemometer Again
2. Change Serial Port (COM2)
3. Change Base Address 02F8h
4. Change Interrupt vector 03h
5. Exit
The user should:
1.
Ensure that the anemometer is connected and powered up. If you are using an indoor Power
and Communications Interface (PCI) and the RX LED is flashing then the anemometer is
powered up and communicating. If the RX LED is NOT flashing it DOES NOT imply that
the anemometer has no power, the anemometer may be awaiting a command over the serial
link.
2.
Check that the COM port displayed (COM2 in the above example) is correct. If not select
option 2 on the menu and select the correct comms port.
3.
Select option 1 on the menu. The software will seek the anemometer again. If you are using
an indoor Power and Communications Interface (PCI), the TX LED should flash during this
process. If it does not then either the serial port setting is wrong or there is a problem with the
communication cable between the PC and the PCI.
4.
If the anemometer is still not found then check that the settings of base address and interrupt
vector are correct for your PC. If not use options 3 & 4 to correct them and option 1 to repeat
the search for the anemometer.
