    1. GENERAL INPUTS: Stylitis-10 is able to measure voltage, frequency and pulses (and current as an option). With suitable sensors it is also capable of measuring: Wind speed, direction and wind-turbine power curves Temperature, humidity, pressure. Solar radiation, rain height, water speed, etc.
