Vaisala WINDCAP Ultrasonic Wind
Sensor WMT700

Vaisala WINDCAP® Ultrasonic Wind Sensor WMT700 series
measures wind speed and direction. The advanced, patented Vaisala
WINDCAP® wind measurement technology ensures accurate results in
all wind directions. The triangle design of the wind sensor provides
three measurement paths. Since one of the paths is redundant, the wind
speed and direction are always calculated from the two most reliable
vectors. The effects of temperature, humidity, and pressure are also
fully compensated.

To configure serial WMT700, proceed as follows:

1.

Open an existing setup in the Setup view or create a new one.

2.

Proceed to the Sensors view.

3.

Select NMEA MWV from the Available list and click the Add
button to insert the sensor into the setup. Select the appropriate
serial port from the Connector list.
