FORMAT determines serial output format. See Appendix for fur-
ther details. PRECIP formats substitute tipping bucket precipita-
tion counts for the VIN4 voltage measurement. ASCII 2 omits VIN
measurement values from the output string.
INPUT TYPE determines the type of wind speed and wind direc-
tion signal to use. Type 1 is for standard WS pulse input wind
speed and WD potentiometer wind direction input. Type 2 is for
VIN3 (wind speed) and VIN4 (wind direction). With Type 2 voltage
inputs, 0 to 5000mV = 0 to 100 m/s wind speed and 0 to 540 de-
grees wind direction. These alternative inputs allow connection to
devices like the Young 85XXX family of 2D Sonic Anemometer.
OUTPUT RATE determines the rate at which serial data strings
are sent from the 32500.
POLL CHARACTER sets the unique polling address for the
32500. Any single alphanumeric character may be used.
BAUD RATE selects one of several preset baud rates. If you
change baud rate while connected, your external device must
also be changed in order to continue communicating with the
32500.
REPORT PARAMETER SETTINGS shows the current state of
Damping, Output Format, Output Rate, and Poll Character.
START and STOP COMPASS CALIBRATION commands perform
the same function as the CALIBRATE button. See section 3.1
COMPASS CALIBRATION for details regarding the calibration
procedure.
