Note: different recording rates and calculated results can be chosen, and they can be 
different for each sensor.  
 
Note also you can run the weather station program connected to the GP2 simulator 
without a GP2 logger or weather station present. This is useful for tweaking the 
program and seeing the effect of different options on the simulated results graphs.

7  Can I add more Sensors? 

Yes! The WS-GP2 uses 5 analogue and 2 counter channels. 
The rest can be used for other sensors. 
For further information see the GP2 User Manual  

Note that the WS-GP2 weather station program has assigned Power Bank B to supply 
the precision reference 3V needed for the wind direction sensor on channel 7. So all 
the Power Bank B terminals, (adjacent to channels 7-12) will also be supplied 3V.
