Data Logger-equipped Meteorological Observation Systems

With these systems, analog or digital output from observation sensors is input to a data logger, with converts all signals to digital data. That data is then stored in the data logger internal memory or written to a flash memory card. Recorded elements include wind speed and direction, temperature, humidity, precipitation, and voltage (snow accumulation, barometric pressure, pulse values are also available as options). By connecting the data logger to a personal computer and using specially designed application software, the instantaneous and 10-minute average values can be collected in RS232C format and either displayed on screen or printed. Three different options are available for the connection between the data logger and PC: direct connection, connection via a modem, or connection via a card reader. The data logger can store from approximately one month to six months of data (varies depending on model.)

RS232C Direct Connection On-site data logger and PC are directly connected. Specially designed application software collects and displays instantaneous and 10-minute average values. Modem Connection 　 Data logger is connected to PC via a modem located at the observation location and public telephone lines. Specially designed application software collects and displays instantaneous and 10-minute average values. Card Reader Connection PC is connected to a card reader. Specially designed application software on the PC records and displays data stored on a memory card in the card reader.
