ASCII POLAR FORMAT

a www.w ddd ss*cc

where

a

= Sensor address

www.w

= Wind speed (selected units)

ddd

= Wind direction (degrees)

ss

= Status code

*

= Asterisk (ASCII 42)

cc

= Checksum

= Carriage return (ASCII 13)

ASCII CARTESIAN (UV) FORMAT

a uu.uu vv.vv ss*cc

where

a

= Sensor address

±uu.uu

= U-axis wind speed (m/s)

±vv.vv

= V-axis wind speed (m/s)

ss

= Status code

*

= Asterisk (ASCII 42)

cc

= Checksum

= Carriage return (ASCII 13)

The CHECKSUM is the two-character printable hexadecimal value

generated by taking the exclusive-or of all characters up to the

asterisk. The STATUS CODE will show a non-zero value only when

the sensor cannot acquire sufficient samples or a measurement

error has occurred.

5.3.3 ASCII POLLED

ASCII POLLED format is the same as ASCII but sends data only

when polled. The sensor stays in low power mode until polled. The

polling command is

Ma! where 'a' is the sensor address. The

default address is

'0' (ASCII 48).

5.3.4 NMEA

NMEA format provides continuous wind measurements in standard

NMEA marine sentences at 4800 baud using the RS-485 output

connections. Output is sent once per second. The output data may

be used with the YOUNG Model 06206 Marine Wind Tracker or

other NMEA-capable device.

NMEA FORMAT

$WIMWV,ddd,R,www.w,N,A*cc

where

ddd

= Wind direction (degrees)

www.w

= Wind speed (knots)

*

= Asterisk (ASCII 42)

cc

= Checksum

= Carriage return, line feed (ASCII 13, 10)

The CHECKSUM is the two-character printable hexadecimal value

generated by taking the exclusive-or of all characters between

'$'

and

'*'.

NMEA is the default setting so that the sensor may be connected

to a Marine Wind Tracker without altering any other sensor

parameters.

5.3.5 SDI-12 CONT

SDI-12 CONT makes continuous wind measurements that may be

retrieved with SDI-12 R, M, and C commands. With R commands,

the sensor responds by sending measurement data. With M and

C commands, the sensor responds with an acknowledgement

showing zero seconds measurement delay. No service request is

sent. Data may be retrieved immediately after an M or C command

with a D command.

If an R, M, or C command includes the CRC designator, retrieved

data will contain an SDI-12 CRC checksum.

5.3.6 SDI-12 STANDBY

SDI-12 STANDBY makes wind measurements only when

polled with an M or C command. The sensor responds with an

acknowledgement indicating that the data will be ready in one

second. With M commands, the sensor sends a service request as

soon as data are ready. Data are retrieved with D commands. If

the M or C command includes a CRC designator, retrieved data

will include a CRC checksum. After each measurement cycle, the

sensor goes into ultra-low power (320 uA) standby. Set Damping

Factor (see 6.4.9) to 0 when using SDI-12 STANDBY.

5.3.7 ADDITIONAL SDI-12 INFORMATION

The 85004 sensor conforms to all aspects of the SDI-12 version

1.3 protocol and will respond to the additional commands listed

below. For further information on the SDI-12 protocol, visit www.
