Hi,

I have one of these anemometers here it is a pulse type and if I could use with Weatherduino would be good.
The unit is very well made and looks like it would long lasting.
The price is attractive also.

Regards,
Denis

Hi,

If you choose the pulse version, and power it with just 5V, theoretically it should work with the WeatherDuino Pro2.

However it will not be a direct replacement for the FO anemometer, as it will require some changes on the TX software. If you decide to go for this anemometer, I will work with you to add support for it on the software. It will be a simple task.

You should inquire the supplier about how many pulses are produced by each revolution, most do 1 pulse per revolution, but the FO per example, produces two. Know this info is very important.

Ok, thank you. When i need help i'll ask!

Congratulations by your weather page, looks great, and thanks for the reference to the WeatherDuino Pro2.

Thankx, this template can be freely downloaded.

Hi,

Yes that looks to be a nice anemometer at a reasonable price (for the apparent quality).

Note that there is a minor "error" in their pulse specification. What they probably mean is "Output signal: pulse (each pulse per second corresponds to 0.88m/s)" or simply "each pulse represents 0.88 metres of Wind Run".

I believe the (claimed) corresponding figure for the Fine Offset is 1.5 mph (per pps) or 0.67 metres/sec, so you may need to increase the scale factor by about 1.31 (or +31%).

Cheers, Alan.

Hi,

Thankx, that's what they mean Thinking about to order one. They also have wind direction meter.
