MODEL 5881 — Packaged Weather Station

General Description

The HydroLynx 5881 Packaged Weather Station combines the effectiveness of the standard ALERT 5081 Self-Reporting Weather Station with the utility of the 50388 transmitter. In addition to its multiple communication pathways, the 50388 features data analysis which allows data to be processed on site prior to transmission.

Processing data allows the 50388 to transmit averages, maximums, minimums and other computed values; this eliminates the transmission of large amounts of data required for these calculations at the base station. When not limited by the ALERT protocol, data in engineering units with base sets are transmitted.

The standard 5881 consists of wind, temperature, humidity, barometric pressure and precipitation sensors; a 50388-81 Data Transmitter; a solar panel; interconnection cables and omni antenna. An RS232 programming port and SDI-12 sensor input port are standard. The 50388 can be expanded to 16 analog inputs, four low speed counters (rain sensor inputs), four high speed counters (wind inputs), twelve digital status inputs and six digital outputs.
