Changing System settings
The System Functions Menu covers a number of miscellaneous functions, such as:
setting the system clock;
calibrating the internal thermistor;
finding your software version number;
adding the compass reading to the measured direction when doing a wind vector average.

you must type

Item 2: 0 (Secondary Unit/Experiment ID, 0 to 9999)
Item 3: 1 (Data Dump Format)
Item 4: 1 (Real Time Output Format)
Item 5: 0 (Add Compass to Vane, 0 = NO, 1 = YES)
Item 6: 0 (Compass Offset in degrees, -180 to 180)
Item 7: 0 (Barometer Elevation in meters, 0 to 5000)
Change Item n to Value m
Enter Cn/m to CHANGE the value of line item n to value m. For example, type C1/3 , followed by <RETURN>
or <ENTER> , to set the primary unit/experiment ID number to 3. If you wish to make this change permanent, you
should then enter E to save the setting to EEPROM.
The different line items have the following meaning.
Primary Unit/Experiment ID : This item affects the real time output messages output by the WEATHERPAK
during data collection. You may have seen these messages on the terminal before entering the User Menu. The
values of this unit ID number, and unit ID number 2 are attached to these messages, to let you identify the source
of the message. For example, they let you identify a single WEATHERPAK in a multi-site system; or they can be
used to define the current system configuration.
Secondary Unit/Experiment ID : This is a second unit identifier, used together with the primary unit/experiment ID.
Data dump format : The format of the data messages you receive from the WEATHERPAK at the terminal when
using the Data Retrieval menu. The formats are defined in the table overleaf.
Real time output format : This item affects the messages transmitted by the WEATHERPAK during normal data
collection.
Add compass to vane : Controls whether or not the WEATHERPAK adds the compass value to the measured wind
direction (the vane) when doing a wind vector average. This is described in more detail in Appendix 0.
Compass offset : This value is added to the compass measurement, to compensate for local variations in magnetic
North. If you have no compass, this option has no effect. More details are given in Appendix 0.
Barometer elevation : The elevation above sea level. This quantity is used to correct the barometric pressure
reading to sea level.
