How automated weather station works

Thursday, July 12, 2018

How does an automated weather station function?

Let us first define what a weather station is before diving into how an automated weather station operates.

What is the purpose of a weather station?

A weather station is a device that uses a variety of sensors to collect data about the weather and surroundings. That's all there is to it, a simple explanation.

Weather centers, personal weather stations, professional weather stations, home weather stations, weather forecasters, and forecasters are various terms used to describe automated weather stations.

Weather station data, such as temperature highs and lows, cloud cover, and precipitation probability, may be used to assess present weather conditions and anticipate future weather forecasts.

Meteorologists, weather lovers, gardeners, farmers, outdoor enthusiasts, students, pilots — everyone who likes weather data or depends on the weather to make choices – use automated weather stations.

The weather Guys explain why weather stations are different from internet weather websites and phone weather applications in this video.

A variety of sensors are used in an automated weather station.

A list of measuring instruments that come with a home weather station is as follows:

Thermometer – A thermometer is a device that measures the temperature. Weather stations measure both interior and outdoor temperatures, record highs and lows, display trend arrows to indicate rising or dropping temperatures, and even forecast short-term future temperature ranges.

Hygrometer – A hygrometer is a device that monitors relative humidity levels. The quantity or percentage of water vapor (water in gas form) in the air is known as relative humidity. Environmental variables and computations such as precipitation, fog, dew point, and heat index are influenced by humidity. Furthermore, keeping correct humidity levels in your house has consequences for both your health and your home.

Barometer – A barometer is a device that monitors the pressure in the atmosphere. Based on the variations in atmospheric pressure that a barometer measures, it can assist anticipate impending weather. A barometric pressure history chart or a pressure trend arrow are available on certain weather stations, allowing you to readily follow changes such as a pressure decline.

Anemometer – An anemometer is a device that measures the speed at which the wind blows. A weather station can display wind speed in miles per hour, kilometers per hour, or knots, as well as record current, peak, and average wind speeds.

Wind Vane – A wind vane, also known as a weather vane, is a device that determines the direction of the wind. A 16-point wind rise is used by weather stations to represent this information.

Rain Gauge – A rain gauge is a device that monitors the amount of rain or liquid precipitation that falls on the ground. Rainfall warnings are available on certain weather stations, letting you know when a rain storm has started or if flooding is a possibility.

Vantage Connect should allow users to choose which SIM card they want to use

Friday, June 22, 2018

By default, Vantage Connect uses a Globe Telecom SIM card. However, because it is the only GPRS signal accessible in the region, some of our weather station clients prefer to utilize Simcard from Smart Communication.

Raised Question:

Is it possible for Vantage Connect to allow users to choose which SIM card they want to use? I understand that Smart Communication will have a higher monthly price, which is fine as long as the client has a choice.

Davis Feedback:

Our 6620G Vantage Connect has a SIM that will roam on Smart Communications. You will need to use the region subscription, 6632C, 6634C or 6636C.

So you would buy

6620G - Vantage Connect

and

6632C or 6634C or 6636C

The 6620G will also work on Globe. If you find that the 6620G is not working let me know and I can see if it’s trying Globe erroneously….and work with the SIM partner to change the priority.

Please contact us with any further questions.

How to Maintain Davis Vantage Pro2 Equipment

Thursday, June 07, 2018

This maintenance video demonstrates what has to be done and how to do it to keep your weather station in good condition.

How to keep your Vantage Pro2 in great condition by cleaning it?

You'll need a soft cloth, a Philips screwdriver, an Allen wrench, a soft-bristled brush, and a soft-bristled brush. Mild soap and water are optional.

Cleaning your Vantage Pro2 consists of the following steps:

Clean the UV sensor with a clean cloth and denatured alcohol if required. Do not put your hands on the diffuser.
Using a moistened soft cloth, clean the solar radiation sensor. Do not put your hands on the diffuser.
Clean out the dirt in the cone by removing the debris screen. Clean your rain collector a few times a year for the best results.
To avoid adding erroneous data while touching the sensors, we recommend opening the transmitter shelter (the white box with the solar panel on the front) and disconnecting the sensors from the interface before proceeding.
The rain cone should be removed from the sensor suite.
Clean the tipping buckets with a wet towel. Use mild soap and water when required. Rinse well. Clean the rain collection drains as well.
Remove the three screws from the radiation shielding with a Philips screwdriver. To keep the shields from falling apart, place your hands under them while you remove the last screw.
Set aside everything except the top plate, which contains the sensor, until you're ready to reassemble it.
Clean the mesh with a soft-bristled brush. If there is a lot of debris, remove the basket and wipe the mesh with mild soap and water. Before returning it to the sensor, give it a thorough rinse.
With an Allen wrench, remove the wind cups. Wipe the shaft with a moist towel. Clean the wind vane and cups with mild soap and water. After a thorough rinse, reattach the cups.

What is the best way to transfer my WeatherLink data from one computer to another?

Monday, April 30, 2018

Use Windows Explorer to locate and look in the Weatherlink installation folder on your previous PC to transfer the weatherlink data. This WeatherLink folder is usually found in the program files directory (c:/Program Files) or at the root (c:).

In WeatherLink, there will be a folder titled after the name you picked for your station (e.g. C:weatherlinkbrettsWX). Copy this complete folder, which is titled after your station, to your new PC's Weatherlink folder. The data should be available when you open that station on the new PC.

Alternatively, you may just transfer the data files yourself. After using WeatherLink to create a new station on the new PC, copy only the old data files (not the entire folder) to the new PC's "station name" folder. The data files will be titled by year and month and have a.wlk extension (e.g. 2011-09.wlk is Sept. 2011 data).
