1.0 INTRODUCTION
The Model 91500 ResponseONEtm Ultrasonic Anemometer is a 2-axis, no-moving parts wind sensor equipped with an internal compass. It is ideal for general meteorological applications requiring accurate and reliable measurement.
The sensor features wide operating range, compact size, easy installation, low power operation and durable corrosion-resistant construction throughout. The internal compass provides wind direction orientation and is suitable for mobile and portable applications.
The sensor features durable corrosion-resistant construction throughout. An internal compass provides wind direction orientation when needed.
The ResponseONE installs on readily-available 1 inch (IPS) pipe. Wiring connections are made in a convenient, weatherproof junction box; special connectors and custom cables are not needed.
Measured data is output in a serial format. NMEA, SDI-12, RMYT, and ASCII protocols are available to suit many applications. Continuous serial output or polled operation may be used.
RS-232 or RS-485 serial format options allows direct connection to YOUNG displays, marine NMEA systems, data loggers, or other compatible serial devices.
Operating parameters are easily reviewed and changed using the ResponseONE CONFIG program available for download at www. youngusa.com. All settings are stored internally in non-volatile memory.

3.0 UNPACKING THE ResponseONE
The ResponseONE comes in a custom shipping carton. Carefully inspect the instrument when first unpacking and report any visible damage to your YOUNG supplier. Be sure to retain the bird spikes and orientation ring for use.

4.1 PLACEMENT
Proper instrument placement is important. Eddies from buildings, trees, or other structures can influence measurements. Locate the sensor well away from obstructions. As a general rule, air flow around a structure is disturbed to 10 times the height of the structure downwind and 1-1/2 times the height of the structure above the roof.

4.2 MOUNTING AND ALIGNMENT The ResponseONE mounts on standard 1-inch (IPS) pipe. This is commonly available steel pipe with an outside diameter of 1.34 inches (34 mm). The mounting pipe should be installed securely in a vertical orientation.
Most applications require aligning the wind sensor array to geographic north (0 degrees). In this orientation the junction box faces SOUTH (180 degrees). See the diagram in APPENDIX B for details. Two methods are suggested below
4.2.1 ORIENTATION USING BUILT-IN ELECTRONIC COMPASS. Place ResponseONE sensor on mounting pipe, fully seating it on the pipe and allowing for free rotation of the sensor. Connect cable as indicated in APPENDIX A and apply power to the system. Rotate the sensor 1-1/4 rotations (CW or CCW). With junction box cover removed, locate and press and hold the “calibrate” button for 3 seconds; the indicator light will blink rapidly to indicate that calibration mode is active (See Fig 4.2.1). Slowly rotate the sensor in the opposite direction for 1-1/4 rotations (this will also serve to unwind the cable around the mounting pipe). After completing the rotations, press and hold the “calibrate” button again for 3 seconds; the indicator will double blink. Tighten the mounting post band clamp to secure the sensor. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. The ResponseONE will output correct wind direction data; the indicator will blink once per second.
To disable the compass, press and hold the button for one second. The indictor light will no longer blink.
Important: Be sure to allow for magnetic declination in your measurement. A declination value can be entered using the ResponseONE CONFIG program or it can be compensated in the data-logger program. Please note that declination may change if the sensor is moved to a new location.

4.2.2 ORIENTATION USING KNOWN GEOGRAPHIC DATA Obtain accurate geographic data for the installation site, this can be a topographic map, graphical GPS map or detailed road map.
1 Place orientation ring over pipe with guide pin up. 2 Place sensor mounting post over pipe. 3 Using the transducers as a sighting aid, align the sensor
with a remote feature that represents the proper orientation (Fig 4.2.2). After alignment, tighten the mounting post band clamp to secure the position. DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN. 4 Slide the orientation ring up so its guide pin is fully engaged in the sensor mounting post notch (Fig 4.2.3). Tighten the orientation ring band clamp to secure its position. DO NOT OVER- TIGHTEN.
If the ResponseONE is later removed, the orientation ring will preserve the sensor alignment.

91500-90(A)

5.1.1 ASCII ASCII output format provides continuous measurement data in text format at any of the available baud rates.

The wind measurement in ASCII output appears either in POLAR (default) or CARTESIAN UV format. With POLAR format, the wind speed threshold and wind speed units are user-selectable. With CARTESIAN the wind threshold is ignored and wind speed units are always meters per second (m/s).

ASCII POLAR FORMAT a www.ww ddd.d ss*cc

where: a www.ww ddd.d ss * cc

= Sensor address = Wind speed = Wind direction = Status code = Asterisk (ASCII 42) = Checksum = Carriage return (ASCII 13)

ASCII CARTESIAN (UV) FORMAT a uu.uu vv.vv ss*cc

where: a ±uu.uu ±vv.vv ss * cc

= Sensor address = U-axis wind speed (m/s) = V-axis wind speed (m/s) = Status code = Asterisk (ASCII 42) = Checksum = Carriage return (ASCII 13)

CHECKSUM is a two-character hexadecimal value (in printable ASCII format) generated by taking the exclusive-or of all characters up to the asterisk. STATUS CODE shows a non-zero value when the sensor cannot acquire sufficient samples or a measurement error has occurred. See APPENDIX C for more information on status codes.

5.1.2 ASCII POLLED
ASCII POLLED is like ASCII format described above except just one serial output string is sent for each polling command received. The polling command is Ma! where ‘a’ is the sensor address (valid characters: 0-9, A-Z, a-z). The default address is ‘0’ (ASCII 48).

NMEA FORMAT

$WIMWV,ddd,R,www.w,u,A*cc

where: WI MWV ddd www.w u
A * cc

= Device type (weather instrument) = Wind direction and speed = Wind direction (degrees) = Wind speed = Wind speed units
S = mph N = knots K = kmph M = m/s = Data status code: A=valid, V=invalid = Asterisk (ASCII 42) = Checksum = Carriage return,Line feed (ASCII 13,10)

CHECKSUM is the two-character printable hexadecimal value generated by taking the exclusive-or of all characters between ‘$’ and ‘*’.

5.2 SDI-12
SDI-12 stands for serial data interface at 1200 baud. It is often used to interface battery powered data recorders with microprocessor based devices designed for environmental data acquisition. SDI12 is typically used when low power usage is required. The SDI-12 device normally remains in a low power, standby state until it is polled at which time a measurement is sent. SDI-12 can effectively address multiple sensors on the same cable.

5.2.1 SDI-12 MEASUREMENT COMMANDS
Model 91000 uses the SDI-12 (v1.3) serial communication protocol to initiate measurements and set sensor operation parameters.
The default sensor address is 0 (zero), and can be changed to any valid single-character value if needed. Additional details about the SDI-12 protocol may be found at www.sdi-12.org.

After initial power-up with 12 VDC, the sensor is in a lowpower standby state with a quiescent current of 4.2 mA. A valid and properly addressed SDI-12 command wakes the sensor to initiate a measurement, set or check operating parameters. After command processing has finished, the sensor returns to the low-power standby state.

5.1.3 RMYT RMYT is a 6-byte binary data format sent at 9600 baud using RS-485 OUTPUT ONLY mode. It is for use with the YOUNG Model 06201 Wind Tracker.
5.1.4 NMEA NMEA format provides continuous measurements in standard NMEA marine sentences at 4800 baud. The ResponseONE must be connected to a NMEA- capable device. Specific details of the NMEA data string are below:

SDI-12 ‘M’ or ‘C’ commands initiate a measurement. The sensor response message indicates the maximum time needed before the measurement is ready, and data values will be available. The maximum time ranges from 1 to 5 seconds depending on the Sample Count.
If an ‘M’ command initiates a measurement, the sensor sends a Service Request when the measurement is ready to be retrieved. When the polling device receives the Service Request it then sends a ‘D’ command to request measurement results from the sensor. With ‘C’ commands, no Service Request is sent, and the polling device must wait the full delay time before sending the ‘D’ command to request the measurement.

IMPORTANT! PARAMETER CHANGES MUST BE STORED IN FLASH MEMORY USING THE aXB! COMMAND OR THEY WILL REVERT TO PREVIOUSLY STORED VALUES AT POWER UP. The aXB! command may be sent after all changes have been made, or not sent at all if the changes are temporary.
SAMPLE COUNT (aXSnnn!) This command sets the number of internal samples used to calculate the median measurement result. More internal samples consume more power while providing greater immunity to conditions like turbulent high-speed wind. Fewer samples consume less power while providing less immunity to disruptive conditions. Default setting is 100.
THRESHOLD (aXTnnn!) Threshold sets the minimum wind speed needed before a new polar wind direction is calculated. The default value is 25 cm/s (0.25 m/s). A greater-than-zero threshold can help provide more meaningful scalar wind direction averages. The threshold for Cartesian (UV) output format is automatically zero regardless of this setting.
5.3 LOW POWER OPERATION Average current consumption with default settings is about 7.5 mA. This configuration uses minimal power and enables all features even though they may not be used. This is suitable for many low power applications.
To reduce current consumption further, additional strategies include disabling unused outputs, using polled serial operation, increasing the output interval, and limiting the sample count to the minimum optimal number. Faster baud rates also reduce power by limiting transmit duration.

6.0 SETTING OUTPUTS AND OPERATING PARAMETERS
6.1 SENSOR CONFIGURATION WITH ResponseONE CONFIG PROGRAM (RECOMMENDED)
The YOUNG ResponseONE CONFIG program is available from the factory web site: www.youngusa.com. It provides an easy method for checking and configuring sensor operation. Install the program on a Windows 7 or higher PC and follow instructions that appear on the program screen to retrieve current sensor settings or send new settings.
6.1.1 Opening the Program After installing the program on your PC, click the desktop icon to open the program. The following screen should appear:

Fig 6.1 ResponseONE CONFIG program opening screen

If you are using the ResponseONE for the first time, the default settings will appear. For reference these are:

FACTORY DEFAULT CONFIGURATION

Protocol: Baud Rate: Wind Format: Wind Units:

RS-232 ASCII / RS-485 (Output Only) 9600 Polar m/s, Degrees azimuth

6.2 SENSOR CONFIGURATION USING A GENERAL PURPOSE COMMUNICATIONS PROGRAM
A general purpose text-based serial communications program like HyperTerminal may be used to manually configure the sensor by sending simple text commands. The following guidelines apply:
The YOUNG sensor and communication program must operate at the same baud rate and be properly connected. Sensor RS-232 mode must be enabled. See the RS-232 wiring diagram, FIGURE A1, in APPENDIX A.
Factory default sensor baud rate is 9600, Configure the serial communications program for NO handshaking and 1 start, 8 data, 1 stop bit, no parity, no flow control.
The sensor must be in COMMAND MODE in order to set parameters. Enter COMMAND MODE by sending three ESC characters (ASCII 27) in quick succession while the sensor is running. When the sensor is in COMMAND MODE, it sends a ‘>’ prompt character indicating that it is ready to accept commands.
If the prompt does not appear after sending three indicating characters, re- check wiring and communication program setup. If the sensor baud rate is unknown, try sending the ESC characters at each of the five available baud rates (1200, 4800, 9600, 19200 and 38400). It is also possible that sensor parameters have been purposely configured to disable RS-232 mode. If this is the case, the following method must be used.
In order to provide access under all conditions, the sensor always begins operation at power up with serial communications set to 38400 baud and RS-232 connections enabled. Immediately after power up, there is a short time window in which to send the ESC characters and enter COMMAND MODE.
To use this feature, set your serial communication program baud rate to 38400. Remove power then wait 5 seconds. Re-apply power to the sensor. The sensor will transmit four asterisks immediately after power up. After the asterisks appear, send three ESC characters. The COMMAND MODE ‘>’ prompt should appear. To do this using ResponseONE CONFIG, connect the ResponseONE to your computer, open the program (make sure the correct serial port is selected), then go to the ‘COMMANDS’ menu and select ‘ACQUIRE ResponseONE’.
A window will come up telling you that the serial port will be set to 38400 baud. Click ‘OK’ to continue. Then simply apply power to the ResponseONE and the program will connect automatically.

If these settings are correct for your application, then you may proceed with operation of the device. If you wish to change any settings, available options can be selected from menu items visible. After changes are made, the ResponseONE CONFIG program automatically saves the new settings in flash memory

91500-90(A)

Page 6

6.3 COMMAND OVERVIEW After the ‘>’ prompt appears, send ‘??’ to display a list of available commands. Send ‘RPTV’ to report current settings. (Note that some values in the report are for factory settings and cannot be changed by the user.)
Commands are case sensitive and the exact format must be used. For example, the SET01nn command requires two digits for the serial format code. If you send SET014 instead of SET0104 the sensor will reject the command and indicate an error. End all commands with a carriage return (ASCII 13). In HyperTerminal, do this by pressing the ENTER key.
After receiving the carriage return, the sensor will evaluate the command. Valid commands will be executed. Current settings can be evaluated at any time by sending RPTV to get a new report.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The YOUNG ResponseONE CONFIG program automatically saves all settings to flash memory when they are sent to the sensor. Settings that are changed manually must be saved to flash with the SET77 command.

Set the serial output format. Default value is 2.

Where n= 1 RMYT

2 ASCII

3 ASCII POLLED

4 NMEA

5 SDI-12

Usage example:

SET022

Sets output to ASCII continuous. Note: If SDI-12

is selected, save settings (SET77) then power

must be cycled off, then on again to operate

properly. SDI-12 automatically sets baud rate

to 1200 and disables RS-232 and RS-485.

SET03nn

Set the baud rate for RS-232/RS-485 serial

communication. Default value is 96. Note: Baud

rate must be the same as connected device.

Where nn=12 1200 baud

48 4800 baud

96 9600 baud

19 19200 baud

38 38400 baud

Usage example:

SET0338

Sets baud rate to 38400.

SET04n

Set wind speed units (ASCII, ASCII POLLED, NMEA

and SDI-12). Default value is 4.

Where n= 1 mph

2 knots

3 mph

4 m/s

Usage example:

SET044

Sets wind speed to m/s.

SET05a

Set sensor address for ASCII POLLED and

SDI-12. Note: This is the address when

polling with the “aM!” command (SDI-12) and

`Ma!’ command (ASCII Polled) where ‘a’ is the

address. Default value is 0.

Where a=

0-9, A-Z, or a-z

Usage example:

SET052

Sets polling address to number 2.

SET06nnn

Set the wind speed threshold. Minimizes erratic

wind direction indications at very low wind

speeds. In polar mode, this allows the sensor

output to mimic a mechanical wind vane that

retains its orientation when there is no wind.

Default value is 25.

Where nnn= 000-150 cm/s

Usage example:

SET06025 Sets wind speed threshold to 25 cm/s.

SET07nnnnn

Set wind speed multiplier. Value is x10000. All

wind speed measurements are multiplied by this

parameter. Default value is 10000 for a multiplier

of 1.0000.

Where nnnnn= 00000-30000

Usage example:

SET0709909 Sets multiplier to 0.9909

SET0710023 Sets multiplier to 1.0023

SET08±nnnn

Set wind direction offset. Value is degrees x10

and may be positive or negative. Wind direction

is always re-scaled to a 0-360 range after offset

is applied. Default value is 00000.

Where ±nnnn= -3600 to +3600

Usage example:

SET08-0012 Offsets wind direction reading by -1.2 degrees

SET08+0005 Offsets wind direction reading by +0.5 degrees

SET09dd

Set damping factor. Default value is 00. This

means no damping is applied. High damping

values at long output intervals can slow the rate

at which indicated wind values change. Wind

measurement outputs are damped using the

following formula:

Sdamped = [(dd-1) * Sdamped + Ssample] / dd

Where dd= Damping factor (00-99)

Sdamped = New or last damped wind speed

Ssample = New wind speed

Usage example:

SET0905

Sets damping factor to 5 (Note: Damping

factor only applies to wind reading.)

Continued on next page…

Page 7

91500-90(A)

SET10nnnn

Set output interval. Sets the time interval

between measurements in one millisecond

increments. Lower values increase power

consumption when continuous measurements

are taken. Default is 1000.

Where nnnn= 0000-9999

Usage example:

SET101000 Sets output interval to 1000 milliseconds

(1 second) (Note: If output interval is set

too low, the ResponseONE will automatically

calculate the minimum output interval.)

SET12nnn

Set sample count. The rate at which the sensor

internally takes complete sonic wind samples

is greater than 200 times per second. This

command sets the number of internal samples

used to calculate the median measurement

result. Default is 100.

Where nnn= 000-800

Usage example:

SET12016 Sets sample count to 16.

More internal samples consume more power

while providing greater immunity to conditions

like turbulent high-speed wind. Fewer samples

consume less power while providing less

immunity to disruptive conditions. This command

interacts with the OUTPUT INTERVAL setting.

More samples may require a longer output

interval.

SET13n

Set ASCII output format. Determines whether

ASCII and ASCII POLLED serial outputs provide

wind data in either Polar (speed and direction)

or Cartesian (UV) form. Default is Polar.

Where n= 0 Polar

1 Cartesian (UV)

Usage example:

SET130

Sets output format to polar.

SET25n

Turn compass on or off. Default is 0.

Where n= 0 Off

1 On

Usage example:

SET251

Turns compass on. Note: This command should

only be used if the sensor has been calibrated at

current location. Calibration automatically turns

on compass.

SET26nddmm

Problem
No Output
One-way communication Status codes other than 00
appear
No response to poll command
Direction is incorrect

Solution
· Check input voltage at sensor (10 ­ 30 VDC). · Check wiring connections. · Verify serial settings (baud rate, 1 stop bit, 8 data bits, no parity, no flow control). · Acquire’ the sensor with the ResponseONE CONFIG program (see section 6.2) and verify setup mode. · Check wiring connections. ·Acquire’ the sensor with the ResponseONE CONFIG program (see section 6.2). · Change output mode to RS-485 full or half duplex, or RS-232.
· Status codes other than 00 (or A’ in NMEA mode) mean there is an error. See Status Codes’ section for details.
· Check power supply. · Check wiring connections. · Verify serial settings (baud rate, 1 stop bit, 8 data bits, no parity, no flow control). · Verify sensor address (if the sensor’s address is 0′, then the poll command is0M!’
in SDI-12 mode and ‘M0! in ASCII Polled mode.). · Acquire’ the sensor with the ResponseONE CONFIG program (see section 6.2) and verify setup mode. · If compass is off, make sure junction box is facing south. ·Acquire’ the sensor with the ResponseONE CONFIG program (see section
6.2) and verify settings. Enable and calibrate compass if needed, enter compass declination, and set the wind direction offset (default is 0000). · Turn compass on and calibrate if needed.

Status codes for ASCII output are hex values added together before output (a status code of 03 would be a code of 01 and 02). NMEA only allows for acceptable’ orvoid’ data. SDI-12 does not show a status code.

Status Code 00 01 02 04 A V

Meaning Valid data Transducer path A blocked or dirty, clear blockage and clean transducers Transducer path B blocked or dirty, clear blockage and clean transducers Transducer path C blocked or dirty, clear blockage and clean transducers NMEA data acceptable (NMEA wind data only) NMEA data void (NMEA wind data only)
