6.4 COMMAND DETAILS

6.4.1 SET01nn SET OUTPUT MODE

This parameter independently enables and disables voltage

output, RS-232, and RS-485 connections. For example, to enable

voltage output, RS-232, and RS-485 full duplex, add the code for

each one: 01 + 02 + 04 = 07,

SET0107. To enable only RS-232:

SET0102. If RS-485 is used, choose only one RS-485 option (04,

08, or 16). See section 6.3 for codes.

To reduce power consumption, enable only those outputs that

are needed. When SDI-12 format is selected with the

SET02nn

command, voltage output, RS-232, and RS-485 connections are

disabled and SDI-12 is enabled.

6.4.2 SET02nn SET OUTPUT FORMAT

This parameter determines the serial output data format. See

section 5.0 for operational details. When selecting some formats,

parameters are automatically changed as listed below:

FORMAT

ADDITIONAL

CODE

PARAMETERS CHANGED

01 RMYT

BAUD = 9600

OUTPUT MODE = 07

THRESHOLD = 25 cm/s

OUTPUT DELAY = 01

SAMPLE COUNT = 31

02 ASCII

03 ASCII POLLED

None

04 NMEA

BAUD = 4800

OUTPUT MODE = 19

THRESHOLD = 25 cm/s

OUTPUT DELAY = 122

SAMPLE COUNT = 31

05 SDI-12 CONT

06 SDI-12 STANDBY

1200 baud

Both SDI-12 settings automatically disable voltage output, RS-232,

and RS-485 connections. With either POLLED ASCII or SDI-12

STANDBY, set the Damping Factor to 0 (see section 6.4.9).

6.4.3 SET03nn SET BAUD RATE

All RS-232 and RS-485 communication use the baud rate set with

this parameter. Power consumption is affected by this setting since

it influences communication duration.

6.4.4 SET04nn SET ASCII WIND SPEED UNITS

Sets wind speed units for ASCII, ASCII POLLED, and SDI-12 polar

outputs only.

6.4.5 SET05c SET POLL ADDRESS CHARACTER

Sets the sensor address for ASCII POLLED and SDI-12 formats.

The default is '0' (ASCII 48).

6.4.6 SET06nn SET WIND SPEED THRESHOLD

Sets the wind speed threshold for polar outputs (wind speed and

direction) to suppress scattered wind direction indications in calm

air. Winds below the threshold are reported as zero, wind direction

is held at last value when wind speed was above threshold. Set

threshold in centimeters per second (m/s x 100). The default

setting is 25 cm/s (0.25 m/s, 0.56 mph).

6.4.7 SET07nnnnn SET WIND SPEED MULTIPLIER

All wind speed measurements are multiplied by this parameter.

The default value is 10000 for a multiplier of 1.0000. This may be

used to individually calibrate each sensor for improved accuracy.

6.4.8 SET08nnnnn SET WIND DIRECTION OFFSET

Use this parameter to add or subtract a wind direction offset. Value

is degrees x 10 and may be positive or negative. Wind direction

is always re-scaled to a 0-360 range after offset is applied. The

default value is 00000.

6.4.9 SET09nn SET DAMPING FACTOR

Wind measurement outputs are damped using the following

formula:

S

damped

= [(d-1) * S

damped

+ S

sample

] / d

where:

S

damped

= New or last damped wind speed

S

sample

= New wind speed speed

d

= Damping factor

The default value is 4. When set to 00, no damping is applied.

Higher damping factors slow the rate at which the sensor indicates

wind changes.

6.4.10 SET10nnn SET OUTPUT DELAY

Sets the amount of time between measurements in increments of

8.192 milliseconds. The default value is 122 ( 0.9994 seconds).

Lower values (less delay) increase power consumption when

continuous measurements are taken.

6.4.11 SET11nn SET DIRECTION VOUT

Sets wind direction voltage output scale to 0-360 or 0-540

degrees. Use the 0-540 scale if possible. When set to 0-360, wind

directions fluctuating about north cause voltage output swings

between zero and full scale. Data loggers or display systems may

sample during these transitions causing erroneous readings. A

0-540 scale eliminates output transitions with northerly wind.

Data in 0-540 form may be re-scaled to 0-360 by subtracting 360

degrees from any value greater than or equal to 360. The default

parameter setting is 0-360 for systems that cannot re-scale the

0-540 output.

6.4.12 SET12nn SET SAMPLE COUNT

All measurements are calculated from the median of 3 to 31

sample sets. More samples consume more power. More samples

are required at higher wind speeds or in conditions where adequate

samples are difficult to acquire. If SAMPLE COUNT is set to 00,

the sensor automatically uses the minimum number of sample sets

needed to produce valid data. However, when powered up for the

first time or when polling at intervals longer than a few seconds,

the sensor may require more than one measurement cycle to

determine the optimum number of sample sets.

In applications where power consumption is not an issue or where

the sensor must acquire results on the first measurement cycle, the

SAMPLE COUNT may be set manually to the highest anticipated

wind speed (m/s) up to 31 which is the maximum SAMPLE COUNT

value. Wind speeds above 31 m/s will use 31 sample sets.

6.4.13 SET13nn SET ASCII and Vout FORMAT

Serial ASCII and ASCII POLLED formats may be set to provide

wind data in either Polar (speed and direction) or Cartesian (UV)

form. This setting also determines the whether voltage outputs are

in Polar or Cartesian format.

00= Polar, 01=Cartesian (UV).

6.4.14 SET14n SET VOLTAGE OUTPUT STATUS
