Description
The
Wind Sensor KNX W
measures wind speed and transfers the values to the KNX
system. Three switching outputs with adjustable threshold values as well as additional
AND and OR logic gates are available.The sensor system, the evaluation electronics
and the electronics of the bus connection are mounted in a compact housing.
Functions:
•
Wind measurement
: The wind strength measurement takes place
electronically and thus noiselessly and reliably, even during hail, snow and
sub-zero temperatures. Even turbulent air and anabatic winds in the vicinity of
the weather station are recorded
•
3 switching outputs
with adjustable threshold values (Threshold values can
be set by parameter or via communication objects)
•
8 AND and 8 OR logic gates
with each 4 inputs. Every switching incident as
well as 8 logic inputs (in the form of communication objects) may be used as
inputs for the logic gates. The output of each gate may optionally be configured
as 1 bit or 2 x 8 bits
Configuration is made using the KNX software ETS. The
programme file
(format VD),
the data sheet and the manual can be downloaded from the Elsner Elektronik
homepage on

in the “Service” menu.
