HEATER ENABLE (aXHn!)
This enables, disables, or tests the heater control circuit. Disabling
the heaters removes power from the control circuit. If the Test option
is used, limited power is continuously sent to each heater zone to
test heater function at room temperature
SAMPLE COUNT (aXSnnn!)
This command sets the number of internal samples used to
calculate the median measurement result. More internal samples
consume more power while providing greater immunity to conditions
like turbulent high-speed wind. Fewer samples consume less
power while providing less immunity to disruptive conditions.
Default setting is 100.
THRESHOLD (aXTnnn!)
Threshold sets the minimum wind speed needed before a new polar
wind direction is calculated. The default value is 25 cm/s (0.25 m/s). A
greater-than-zero threshold can help provide more meaningful scalar
wind direction averages. The threshold for Cartesian (u-v) output
format is automatically zero regardless of this setting.
WIND SPEED MULTIPLIER (aXMnnnnn!)
All wind speed measurements are multiplied by this parameter. The
default value is 10000 for a multiplier of 1.0000.
WIND DIRECTION OFFSET (aXO±nnnn!)
Use this parameter to add or subtract a wind direction offset. Value
is degrees x 10 and may be positive or negative. Wind direction is
always re-scaled to a 0-360 range after offset is applied. The default
value is 00000.
4.4 LOW POWER OPERATION
With default settings and a 2-second sampling period, the average
current consumption is less than 4 mA. Average current consumption
may be reduced further by making fewer measurements (one every
5 or 10 seconds, for example) or lowering the Sample Count to
fewer than 16. Lowering the Sample Count below 16 may limit
measurement accuracy in winds greater than 30 m/s.
4.5 TROUBLESHOOTING
Symptom: After using setup program, SDI-12 mode is disabled.
(Note: Setup program is only for RS232 mode.)
Cause:
Saving parameters in setup program disables SDI-12
mode.
Solution: While in RS232 command mode, send the following
commands via the “Communications” tab in the setup
software or via a terminal program to re-enable
SDI-12 mode. (“>” is the command prompt):
>SET025
>SET77
Power cycle the sensor.
Sensor will be in SDI-12 mode.
