Channel Ratio

Divides the value of a channel on this

monitor system by a value on any other

monitor system, and gives the result. This

can be used to find the relative

differences between reading at two

locations.

Rolling Maximum

Gives the maximum value of another

channel, over the last (user specified)

number of seconds. The main use is to

give a wind gust value.

Sunshine Hours

Calculates the time (hours) that a channel

is greater than or equal to a given level.

The value is reset to 0 at midnight.

When used with a solarimeter channel,

this can give the number of hours of

sunshine so far in a day.

Wet Bulb

Calculates the effective wet-bulb tem-

perature, based upon air temperature,

relative humidity and pressure data.

Beaufort

Displays wind speed using the Beaufort

scale. This can display the numeric

Beaufort value or the corresponding text

representation, i.e. 1, 2, or Light Air, Light

Breeze.

Headwind

Calculates the headwind component for a

given heading, based upon windspeed

and direction values.

Absolute

Calculates the absolute value for input data.

That is, converts all values to positive, i.e.

1.1 stays 1.1, but -2.6 becomes 2.6.

QFE

Calculates the effective barometric pres-

sure at the station location or elevation

datum point. This uses air pressure,

temperature and sensor height above the

datum point.

QNH

Calculates the effective mean sea level

barometric pressure based on station

QFE and height above sea level.

Select items from the Data Type and make entries in the Properties dialogs

as appropriate to the proposed task.
