T107 Weather Station

Radios not networked together, not communicating:

1. Check the baud rate of all RF450s; they should be the same.

2. Check Network IDs of all RF450s; they should be the same.

3. Check Frequency Key Number of all RF450s; they should be the same

unless two branches of the network are operating in a parallel manner.

4. Check the “Repeaters Used” box for all RF450s.

5. Check the PakBus address of dataloggers connected to RF450s and in

LoggerNet.

6. Check that antenna and antenna cables are SMA (SubMiniature version

A). They will have a yellow heat shrink label to distinguish them from

RPSMA (Reverse Polarity SubMiniature version A) devices. RPSMA

antennas and cables are not compatible with the RF450.

LEDs flash when LoggerNet command transmitted but no response from

datalogger:

1. Check SC12 cable on the datalogger’s CS I/O port.

2. Check SDC address in RF450.

3. Check SDC address in datalogger.

4. Check the baud rate of all RF450s; they should be the same.

5. Check the baud rate of LoggerNet; it should match the baud rate of the

RF450s.

Using the diagnostics port.

A special FreeWave Diagnostics cable and software (pn 20625) can be useful

in troubleshooting radio problems. Contact FreeWave Inc. for more

information on using the Diagnostics cable.

4.2.7 Gill WindSonic1-ET Diagnostic Diagnostic Codes

The WindSonic outputs a diagnostic (TABLE 4-3) along with each wind

direction and speed measurement. A datalogger program can be written that

filters out all data when the diagnostic is not 0. The programs can also report

the number of good samples that were used in computing the on-line statistics.

If the total number of good samples is less than 98% of the expected samples,

the WindSonic may be in need of repair.
