DIP Switch Settings
The DIP switches are pre-set at the factory and should not need to be adjusted. However, sometimes
during installation they get changed accidentally.
1.
The Dual Set Point controller is designed to operate as either a wind alarm or temperature
alarm. The DIP switch marked "Wt" determines which mode is selected. Set this switch to OFF
for wind alarms.
2.
Set the "Wu" switch to OFF for wind speed in miles per hour (MPH). Set the switch ON for
kilometers per hour (KPH).
3.
The "Tu" switch sets the temperature units. This is not relevant to the wind alarms, so it doesn't
matter how this switch is set.
4.
The "Si" (silent) switch determines whether the internal buzzer operates. The normal setting is
OFF which allows the buzzer to operate. The ON setting silences the buzzer.
The controller checks the positions of the DIP switches when the unit initializes during power-up.
Disconnect the AC Adapter for a few seconds and then re-connect power to change modes after
changing any switches.

ANEMOMETER INSTALLATION
WARNING: Avoid overhead power lines whenever possible. If there are overhead power lines, use
extreme care to prevent contact with the power lines while installing the equipment. NovaLynx
recommends using only experienced equipment installers to avoid injury.
5.1
Anemometer Siting Considerations
Choose a mounting location for the wind sensor that is free of obstructions since nearby objects can
create eddy currents that will affect the wind measurements. Try to locate the wind sensor so that the
nearest object is 10 x T away from the wind sensor mast, where T is the height of the object.
