SETALR

The WAC155 can monitor the wind sensor movement to detect if the
sensors appear to be stuck in place. The SETALR command is used to
configure this functionality.

If the functionality is enabled and timeouts are not zero, sensors are
cross-checked for changes, i.e. if the reading of the other sensor
changes, but the other one does not for certain period of time, the sensor
is considered stuck.

unchanged until both sensors are considered being stuck.
Range 0 ... 65535 (default 1440)

dirlimit = Threshold limit for wind direction change. If the wind

direction change is below the threshold, it is considered
unchanged from the wind sensor stuck functionality point
of view. Range 0 ... 180 (default 3)
