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.

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

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

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.

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.

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)
