Value
Allowed Values Units Description
msg1, msg2,
msg3, msg4
String with a
maximum of 80
characters.
User-configurable data message formats.
Parameters correspond to the message
identification numbers from 1 to 4.
serial_n Serial number for WMT700.
This is a read-only parameter
serial_pcb Circuit board serial number.
This is a read-only parameter.
sleepTime 5 0 = disabled
1 … 32000
s Duration of the low-power mode in
seconds. WMT700 returns automatically
to normal state after this period of time
has elapsed. You can also return to
normal state by sending an extra space
before the polling command.
startDelay 5 0 … 30 s Defines how long WMT700 waits before
activating automatic messages at startup.
wndAvg 1 0.25 … 3600
Resolution: 0.25
s Averaging time for wind measurement in
seconds. This parameter affects both
serial communication and analog output.
wndCoast 0 0 … 100
0 = disabled
m/s Wind direction coasting threshold in
meters per second. When wind speed
drops below the limit, wind direction
coasting is performed.
Only affects the scalar averaging mode.
wndCover 4 0 ... 20 seconds s Defines how long WMT700 continues to
report the last valid wind value if wind
measurement fails (for example due to
snow or birds). 0 means that if
measurement fails, WMT700 reports
missing measurement data immediately.
wndDirOffset 0 -180… 180 degrees Deg User-defined wind direction offset.
wndGustTime 3 0.25 … 10
Resolution: 0.25
s Averaging time for wind minimum and
maximum in seconds.
wndOrientation 0 0 = array facing up
1 = array facing down
Orientation of the transducer arms of
WMT700.
wndUnit 0 0 = m/s
1 = mph
2 = km/h
3 = knots
Wind speed unit.
This parameter affects data messages
sent through serial interfaces but has no
impact on analog output.
wndVector 1 0 = scalar averaging
1 = vector averaging
Wind averaging method.
