Software

The following components are available in Station Data. Listed below each
component are the sensors (for pre-configured weather stations) and real time
fields (for custom stations) required for each condition to be displayed.

Thermometer

Air Temperature

Sensors: HMP50-ET Temp/RH Sensor, CS500, HMP35C, HMP45C, 107
Temperature Probe, or 108 Temperature Probe

Real Time Fields: Air Temperature

Wind Chill

Sensors: Sensors that measure Air Temperature and Wind Speed

Real Time Fields: (Air Temperature and Wind Speed) or Wind Chill

Note that when using Air Temperature and Wind Speed to calculate the
Wind Chill, the Air Temperature and Wind Speed must fall within these
boundaries in order for Wind Chill to be calculated:

-50

°F

≤ Air Temperature ≤ 50 °F

3

MPH

≤ Wind Speed ≤ 110 MPH

If either measurement is outside the boundaries, the Wind Chill will be
reported as N/A. The condition that caused the Wind Chill not to be
calculated will also be specified. See Appendix D for more information
on Wind Chill calculation.

Heat Index

Sensors: Sensors that measure Air Temperature and RH

Real Time Fields: (Air Temperature and RH) or Heat Index
