Introduction & Overview – 102813A TACMET 2010 Weather Station Overview Met One’s 102813A TACMET 2010 weather station is designed as a stand-alone weather station to provide accurate measurements of wind speed, wind direction, temperature and relative humidity. The unit has no moving parts and is ideally suited for use wherever reliable, maintenance free operation over a wide operating range under adverse operating conditions is required.
Installation Be sure to mount the sensor in a clear, open area to minimize any turbulent effects caused by local obstructions (e.g., trees, buildings, etc.). The sensor is typically installed on Met One’s P/N 102656-G pre-wired sensor mounts. The keyway in the connector on the base of the sensor is matched to the keyway on the mount.
The auxiliary serial port output (pin F on the connector) is set for 19,200 baud (N/8/1) and outputs a complete data string approximately once per second. The data is easily viewed and can be displayed and captured using Met One’s WeatherView Software or Windows HyperTerminal.
Appendix A Theory of Operation Winds Met One’s sonic anemometer operates on the principal that the speed of the wind affects the time it takes for sound to travel from one point to a second point. If the sound is traveling in the direction of the wind then the transit time is decreased.
