1、Wind Direction Sensor: The all round 360 degree wind direction sensor comes with excellent linearity, high accuracy, no dead points, strong resistance, easy observation, and reliable stability. 2、Wind Direction Indicator Shell: Small rotational resistance, accurate measurement, small size, light weight, easy to carry and assemble. It has a simple design, but very practical in use, giving you a good using experience. 3、ABS Material: Made with a low inertia ABS wind vane, the sensor exhibits good dynamic characteristics and responds well to wind direction changes. Safe to use. Boasting wonderful performance and strong stability. 4、Working Principle: The wind direction sensor operates primarily by rotation. This working principle enables accurate measurements of the wind's direction. It can be used outdoors for a long time. 5、Wide Application: Ideal for meteorology, environmental monitoring, aviation, and aerospace. It aids in understanding wind conditions and implementing corresponding measures.

Standard for ModBus RTU communicating protocol :
First, the serial port format: data bits 8 bits, stop bit 1 bit, parity bit none, default baud rate 9600bps, serial port software set to hex send and receive, two communicating intervals of at least 500ms or more, CRC in the manual for the parity bit, 2 bytes. Device address default address 2.
Second, the communicating format
1. Write the device address (for example, write address 02)

Omnidirectional wind sensor returns data as 0x0026 converted to decimal as 38 , the wind direction value is 38 degrees, no decimal places. If it is an eight direction wind direction sensor, the return data refers to the table of eight direction calculation formula on page 1.
4. Read device communicating baud rate (for example: read address 2 of the device baud rate = 9600)
Send02030010000185FC
