6. Description of Measuring Devices (Sensors)
The sensor concept of the Professional Remote Weather Station consists of two
sensor groups. For operation of the Weather Station a Remote Indoor Sensor is
generally necessary. It transmits a fixed data telegram determining the display of
temperature and humidity in the display section for the indoor values in the upper
left part of the LCD. The sensor is immediately operable since addressing is only
necessary in very rare exceptional cases.
This addressing is only necessary if – within the sensor's transmission range (up to
100m) – two Base Stations with respectively assigned Indoor Sensors need to be
operated (Base Station 1 showing the data of Indoor Sensor 1, Base Station 2
showing the data of Indoor Sensor 2).
The Rain Volume Sensor as well as the Wind Sensor also have fixed addressing
and belong to this group since their measured values too have their fixed location
in the display.
The second group of sensors are the optionally obtainable types WS 2200-22, WS
2200-27, as well as the Remote Outdoor Sensor (included with basic shipment).
These sensors transmit their data signal to be displayed in the outdoor section in
the upper right part of the LCD. It is possible to operate up to 8 sensors which can
be selected through the sensor selection in the display. It is thus necessary to
assign a respective address to each sensor determining their fixed location in the
upper right display section. Therefore please observe for these three types in the
notes on addressing.
Remote Indoor Sensor
The Remote Indoor Sensor included with the basic shipment requires two Type
Mignon AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries for operation. It contains one respective sensor
for temperature, humidity and air pressure. The data of the Remote Indoor Sensor
generally appear in the indoor display section in the upper left part of the LCD.
Besides indoor temperature and indoor humidity it measures the air pressure
prerequisite for the display of air pressure, air pressure tendency, weather tendency
and air pressure history.
Remote Wind Sensor
The Remote Wind Sensor simultaneously acquires wind direction and wind strength
at its mounting location. It is operated by a solar cell with a battery backup during
darkness and provides addressing which cannot be altered by the user.
Remote Rain Volume Sensor
The Remote Rain Volume Sensor also works with solar power supply and provides
addressing not alterable by the user. The funnel has a 130 mm diameter, which
2
represents an area of 0.0133 m , the calculation base for the rain volume.The amount
of water flowing through the funnel initiates a number of pulses. These pulses are
2
converted to Liter/m oder mm in the Base Station and then displayed.
