Sensors involved in MH windchill calculation
Posted: Fri Dec 02, 2011 2:49 pm
I'm wondering which sensors are being used for the windchill calculation.
I've got 2 stations connected to my MH rig:
WMR968
Outdoor temp sensor: th0
Wind sensor: Wind0
Vantage Pro
Outdoor temp sensor: th4
Wind sensor: Wind4
In the weather station setup I can choose for:
WMR968
Use Reading from Weather Station or Compute from Wind and Temperature (th0) readings
Vantage Pro
Compute from Wind and Temperature (th0) readings
There is no other choice which makes sense since the "loop" command doesn't provide derived values.
Questions:
1) It seems that th0 is always used irrespective of the station selected, or is this just a gui issue
1a) If not, I think it would make sense that one can select the temperature sensor used for the Windchill calculation
2) Which wind sensor is used, the GUI doesn't provide a clue.
2a) I 1a) I guess it would make sense that one can select the wind sensor used for the Windchill calculation
Thanks,
Ysbrand
