Hello,
I need your kind suggestion for measuring u,v,w wind from RM 81000 anemometer voltage outputs in CR1000.
I have changed the voltage o/p setting to output format one (i.e. u,v,w, sonic temp) using hyper terminal.
However, u,v,w reading are not giving correct values, but, sonic temp is giving correct value.
I am using the following main program in CRBasic for calculation of u,v,w,SonicT

Could you please help me further to measure correct u,v,w value from RM young 81000? I am using differential connection.
I would appreciate your kind concern as I stopped here for this without any other help and response. I am really unable to get response from local Campbell Scientific.
Please help.
