Mode 14 – Averaging Polled Mode
See Mode 15 for data output format and command explanations.
For ease of use before changing to this Mode set all other WindObserver parameters first
including:-
Px:- Measurement Rate, (P1) this command sets the underlying measurement rate of 1Hz.
RWASHORT xx: - Short Term Number, where xx is a number from 10 to 60.
RWALONG xx: - Long Term Number, where xx is a number from 1 to 10.
Once set for Mode 14, to Poll for averaged data use the ? command followed by the unit
designator A (default setting, ensure capitol letter used).
The polled mode commands available in this mode are:
Description Command WindObserver response
Enable Polled Mode ? (None)
WindObserver Unit Identifier (N) A…….Z Output generated
Disable Polled mode ! (None)
Request WindObserver Unit
Identifier
& A ….. Z (as configured)
Enter Configuration mode *<N> CONFIGURATION MODE
Where <N> is the unit identifier, if used in a multi-drop system then it is recommended
that ID’s A to F and KMNP are not used as these characters can be present in the data
string.
It is suggested that in polled mode the following sequence is used for every poll for
information.
? Ensures that the Sensor is enabled to cover the event that a power down has
occurred.
A-Z Appropriate unit designator (capitol letter) sent to retrieve a line of data.
! Sent to disable poll mode and reduce possibility of erroneous poll generation.
When polled with the default Mode 14 factory setting the WindObserver (set for default
1Hz output) will output the last valid 10 minute wind speed and direction average, updated
every minute along with last valid 1 minute Gust magnitude.
