Wind Direction
The wind vane is coupled to a 10 k
potentiometer, which has a 5 degree
electrical dead band between 355 and 360 degrees. A 1 M
resistor between the
signal and ground pulls the signal to 0 mV (0 degrees) when wind direction is
between 355 and 360 degrees.
The CR200(X) datalogger uses the
ExDelSE()
instruction to measure wind
direction. All other CRBasic dataloggers use the
BRHalf()
instruction. Edlog
dataloggers (CR510, CR10X, CR23X) use Edlog Instruction 4—Excite, Delay
(P4).
Some CRBasic measurement sequences cause the measurement of the wind
direction to return a negative wind direction (–30
º
) while in the dead band. This
can be overcome by using a delay of 40 ms (40,000µs) or by setting negative wind
direction values to 0.0: If WindDir < 0, then WindDir = 0.0.
The excitation voltage, range codes, and multipliers for the different datalogger
types are listed in Table 7-3. Appendix B has additional information on the P4
and
BRHalf()
measurement instructions.

Wind Vector Processing Instruction
The Wind Vector output instruction is used to process and store mean wind speed,
unit vector mean wind direction, and Standard Deviation of the wind direction
(optional) using the measured wind speed and direction samples.
