For instance if a
10 minute averaged data
output was required set:-
RWA Long to 10
RWA Short to 60
For these settings then every minute you would get an averaged output reading based on the
previous 10 minutes of wind data.
To enable WMO averaged Wind readings in the MaxiMet data string select the Reporting
Tab/USERDEF and add new reporting field from the drop down menu called:-
AVGSPEED
Outputs Average Speed readings.
AVGDIR
Outputs Average Direction Readings.
AVGCDIR
Outputs Average Corrected Direction Readings.
The maximum Gust Speed is the magnitude of the maximum gust measured over the short term
output period. Gust is generated from a rolling 3s average of the short term output period, and
reset at the end of short term output period.
GSPEED
Outputs Average Wind Gust Speed.
The Maximum Gust Direction is the direction of the maximum gust measured over the short term
output period. Gust is generated from a rolling 3s average of the short term output period, and
reset at the end of short term output period.
GDIR
Outputs Average Wind Gust Direction.
Whenever the unit is powered up then until the unit has reached its minimum long term averaging
interval the Wind Status code will read 0100 (Measurement Average Building).
If MaxiMet is in Polled mode then when polled (default 1Hz output) MaxiMet will output the last
valid 10 minute wind speed and direction average, updated every minute along with last valid 1
minute Gust magnitude.
In polled mode, the last set of computed WMO measurements shall be output on receipt of a poll
request.
In polled mode whilst a new WMO average is building, the last computed WMO average shall be
output.
