We will now add a barometric pressure, wind speed and wind direction channel to the
channels on the TP. Switch to analyser number 1 on the Analyser Parameters
dropdown list and choose the information tab. Click on the Add Channel button three
times. Three new channels will be added to the list and they will have default values
entered into most of their columns. Make sure the settings match those of table 6
below

Now press the OK button on the Analyser Parameters window. This will save the
settings to the database. You may notice that the Restart Server button is not enabled
at this time. This allows WinAQMS Mini DAS to have sufficient time to write the
settings to the database before you restart the server again with the updated settings.
The wind speed and direction sensor that is being used is an analogue output MetOne-
034 sensor.
