Quick Start Deployment Guide (USB Cable & Computer)
It is recommended to use a computer and the supplied USB cable when setting up
the sensor unit to verify the operation of the sensors, system output, and cellular
data connectivity (if applicable). If no cable and computer are available, please
see the next page.
Unpack the sensor unit and check for any physical damage or obstructions at the
sensor openings. Open enclosure cover and check for any loose or damaged
components. Make sure all wires are securely fastened as shown in the internal
sensor view on page 7.
1)
Hook up USB cable sensor and initialize terminal connection. Power on unit
and verify that the SD card was detected and initialized.
2)
Verify the sensor outputs are reasonable or trending toward reasonable
values keeping in mind the stabilization time for sensors that have been
powered off or exposed to high VOC concentrations. Additionally, it may
take up to 30 seconds for the ultrasonic anemometer to report valid
environmental data. For information on USB headings and field
identification, please see page 10.
3)
When installing orient the weather sensor such that it is pointing North.
Failure to do this will result in arbitrary wind direction. The North direction
is indicated with a notch on the ultrasonic anemometer base. See page 11
for anemometer instructions. Never rotate the anemometer from the top
or severe damage will occur.
4)
After verifying functionality remove the USB cable. If planning to run in
USB mode, install a power adapter or a solar panel for long term
deployment applications. Otherwise, power cycle the SPOD, then install a
power adapter or a solar panel for long term deployment applications.
