Wireless weather data transmitter module for the seven weather items sent
by the weather data multi-sensor WMS.
With an internal antenna. Only 0.3 watt standby loss.
For installation.
- 45 mm long, 45 mm wide, 18 mm deep. Power (24V DC) is supplied by the switch mode power supply unit FSNT61-24V/6W, (33 mm deep, 45 mm long, 45 mm wide). This switching power supply unit simultaneously supplys the weather data multi-sensor WMS including the heating of the rain sensor.
- It is possible to use a deep wall box for the two devices.
- This weather data transmitter module receives the seven momentary readings of the weather items: brightness (from three cardinal points), twilight, wind, rain and ambient temperature by cable J-Y (ST) Y 2x2x0,8 from the weather data multi-sensor WMS attached to the outside of the building. The readings are sent them at the priority below to the ELTAKO wireless network in the form of wire less telegrams.
- Only one weather data multi-sensor WMS can be connected to a wireless weather data transmission module FWS61. However, several FWS61 can be connected to a multi-sensor MS. The external terminating resistor is only required for an FWS61. At all other FWS61, it must be removed.
- The evaluation is made with a controller, the wireless multifunction sensor relay FMSR14 and/or the actuators FSB14 and FSB71. When the supply voltage is applied, a teach-in telegram is sent immediately and two status telegrams containing the momentary values are sent approx. 60 seconds later. At least every 10 minutes, but also:
- Brightness values west, south and east each from 0 to 99 kLux if a change of a minimum 10% occurs.
- Twilight values from 0 to 999 Lux if a change of a minimum 10% occurs.
- Wind speeds from 0 to 70 m/s. From 4 m/s to 16m/s, the momentary values are sent immediately 3 times at intervals of 1 second. After that, further value increases are sent within 20 seconds. Dropping wind speeds are sent progressively delayed by 20 seconds. Rain values at the start are sent immediately 3 times. After the rain stops, a telegram is sent within 20 seconds.
- Temperature values from -40.0°C to +80.0°C are sent every 10 minutes together with all the other values in a status telegram. Monitoring weather data multisensor function and line break. If the weather data message from weather data multi-sensor WMS is not sent for 5 seconds, the FWS61 immediately sends an alarm telegram which is repeated every 30 seconds. The alarm telegram can be taught in as a switch telegram in an actuator to initiate further action as required. In addition, the two status telegrams containing the values brightness 0 Lux, twilight 0 Lux, temperature -40°C (frost), wind 70 m/s and rain are sent. When a message is again detected from the weather data multi-sensor WMS, the alarm stops automatically.
