Available measurements depend on the transmitter model. Values may be
unavailable also in case of device failure. Read status registers or
exception status outputs to check for failures. Accessing unavailable
(unsupported or temporarily missing) measurement data does not
generate an exception. “Unavailable” value (a quiet NaN for floating
point data or 0x8000 for integer data) is returned instead. An exception is
generated only for any access outside the GMW90 registers.
A “quiet NaN” value is returned for unavailable values. Writing any NaN
or infinite value is silently ignored.
NOTE
A complete 32-bit floating point value should be read and written in a
single Modbus transaction.

NOTE
Elevation is linked to pressure according to the following equation:
p = 101325 (1 - 2.25577 10
-5
h)
5.25588
where p is pressure in Pa and h is altitude above sea level in m. This
means that changing altitude will also change pressure and vice versa.
