Section 7. Operation

The PWS100 will then display the configuration parameters on screen in the
following format:

Date and Time
PWS100 product identification
Serial Number
Hardware Version
Software Version
PWS100 ID
Serial Baud Rate
Interface type [RS232 / RS485] and duplex [FULL / HALF]
Auxiliary Sensor ID 1, 2…
Hood and Dew heater settings
Overrun error count
Output mode
Diagnostic mode
Watchdog error count

Some of these parameters are set using other commands, such as the time and
date being set using the TIME command and the various message output
parameters set using the MSET command. Other configuration parameters will
only be updated with an OS change.

An example of the output given from the CONFIG command is given below:

23/2/2007 16:30:01
PWS100
SN-9999
HW4
OS 007628-02c
PWS_ID 0
Baud 117504
RS232 Full Duplex
TRH 1 Wetness 0 Aux 0
Hood 10 Dew 2
OR_ERR 0
Output_Mode 1
Diag 0 0
WD 0

Using the SETCONFIG command will adjust system configuration parameters.
SETCONFIG allows you to change the PWS100 ID and the sensor types.

To view the current SETCONFIG parameters without changing them use
SETCONFIG

↵.

To change the parameters use the following command:

SETCONFIG pws100_ID TRH_Sensor Wetness_Sensor Aux_Sensor
Hood_Set Dew_Set Output_Mode

The pws100_ID is a number from 0 to 99. This is the effectively the station
address and is required on any communication with the PWS100. On a network
with more than one PWS100 the ID must be set different for each station. The
default factory pws100_ID is zero (0).
