Introduction

This Wireless Weather Sensor with GPS is a versatile instrument with multiple sensors, including a global positioning 

system (GPS) module. It is durable and weather-resistant (IP-64) and can connect wirelessly via Bluetooth to a comput

-

ing device such as a tablet or computer using PASCO data collection software (see www.pasco.com). The software sup

-

ports data logging when the instrument is not connected to a computing device. The Wireless Weather Sensor has a 

rechargeable battery pack. 

The sensor measures wind speed, wind direction, barometric pressure, humidity, ambient temperature, light level, UV 

index, and magnetic heading. The GPS module reports latitude, longitude, altitude, speed, and satellite count. The soft

-

ware can calculate dew point, wind direction, wind chill, absolute humidity, and heat stress index.

Features

The included one-meter long USB cable has a “Micro-B” type plug at one end and a Type A plug at the other end.
