  • Page 3: Introduction

    The heater prevents the accumulation of snow and ice formation, allowing accurate measurements in all environmental conditions. HD51.3D4R-AL is equipped with an enhanced heater, for rapid defrosting, and an ano- dized aluminum alloy housing with anti-corrosion coating that makes it possible to use the instrument even in a particularly aggressive atmosphere (e.g., marine environment).

    The RS485 standard requires that the total load does not exceed 32 unit loads. The load of an HD51.3D4R… anemometer is equal to ¼ of unit load. If the total load is greater than 32 unit loads, divide the network into segments and - 10 HD51.3D4R...

    If the instrument is set up to work with an operating protocol, the protocol becomes active 10 seconds after power on (in the first 10 seconds the instrument waits for a possible command to enter configuration mode, as explained in chapter 6). The auxiliary RS485 serial output is always in configuration mode. - 13 HD51.3D4R V1.2...
