    Anemometer not showing all directions

    Eric, for the major directions I can see the voltage fine within an 11 degree "pie piece" on both sides of a major direction. Outside of these, I can see a 22.5 degree "pie piece" of 10.23v area, then the next major direction shows up. So the boundaries are correct and the size of the "dead...

    Anemometer not showing all directions

    Sorry, it's the ADS. Did a bit of tinkering and removed the board from the housing. Using a small magnet I can get the readings to manually show up for the intermediate points, but not with the vane. It's as if the magnet is not close enough to activate both reed switches when at these points...

    Anemometer not showing all directions

    The problem is the anemometer gives me only 8 directions instead of 16. The major points (N,E,S,W,NE,SE,SW,NW) are all being reported, but the intermediate points aren't. The voltage reported is either 10.23v or 0.0v. Any tips on getting the other 8 directions too?

    CRC error on ADS

    Received my ADS anemometer yesterday and started setting it up today (I knew I shouldn't have done that right after a night shift...) When I connected the 14v supply to the screw terminals on the controller board, I accidentally switched the polarity... I found out soon enough from the smell...

    Leaf Wetness Sensor in Stock

    Good show, now all I need is the Moisture Meter. Any word on that? I know it's being re-designed, but maybe it's coming up on the horizon...? :pray:

    Anemometer Board

    OK, so forgive me for the somewhat lengthy introduction, but it'll give you better insight of the situation: I've had an OS WTGR800 sensor for some time now (and working sharpish) and recently moved it from the garden to the roof. Thing is, now the sensor does't see the receiver anymore (maybe a...

    Barometer Calibration

    Yes!! I'm up and running, just gonna monitor the values for a day or so to see if I need to tweak it a hear left or right. Good stuff!! Thanks Eric!!

    Barometer Calibration

    OK, so I got the HB barometer and had it calibrated by the vendor. Hooking it up though, it displayed an almost constant 28.39 inHg, while three local weather stations (same altitude, about 2 miles from me) say it should be 29.76 (!). After letting it sit for a day or so, it still gives me this...
