4.2.2 ORIENTATION USING BUILT-IN ELECTRONIC
COMPASS.
Note: Acclimate the ResponseONE to ambient
temperature at the installation site before calibrating.
Place ResponseONE sensor on mounting pipe, fully
seating it on the pipe and allowing for free rotation of
the sensor. Connect cable as indicated in APPENDIX
A and apply power to the system. (Refer to Fig 4.2.2)
With junction box cover removed, press and hold the
“CALIBRATE” button for 3 seconds; the indicator light
will blink rapidly to indicate that calibration mode is
active. Slowly rotate the sensor for 1-1/4 rotations. After
completing the rotations, press and hold the “CALIBRATE”
button again for 3 seconds; the indicator will double blink.
Within the next 60 seconds, tighten the mounting post band
clamp to secure the sensor. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. At
this point, the compass will lock the direction of the sensor
and the ResponseONE will output correct wind direction
data; the indicator will continue to blink once per second.
Reattach J-Box cover and engage orientation ring as
shown in Fig 4.2.3 Tighten the orientation ring band clamp.
Important : Be sure to allow for magnetic declination in
your measurement. A declination value can be entered
using the ResponseONE CONFIG program or it can be
compensated in the data-logger program. Please note that
declination may change if the sensor is moved to a new
location. Accurate declination data can be obtained from
the following website:

4.3 WIRING CONNECTIONS
The ResponseONE is supplied with RS-232, RS-485 and SDI-12
signal capability. Please select the signal type desired and refer to
the appropriate WIRING CONNECTIONS diagram in APPENDIX A
for connecting the ResponseONE to your serial device. Please note,
the ResponseONE is not equipped with analog outputs.
5.0 OPERATION
5.1 SERIAL OUTPUT FORMATS
The ResponseONE comes standard with the following serial output
formats:
Format/Protocol Wiring Format
ASCII Polled and Continuous RS-232, RS-485
NMEA 0183 v3.0 Automatic RS-232, RS-485
SDI-12 Polled SDI-12
