1. GENERAL INFORMATION
Vaisalas WIND30 Multichannel Averaging Wind Display is a
dedicated unit for measuring, processing and displaying wind data.
Instantaneous wind speed, 2 and 10 minute averages, and
maximum and minimum values are presented numerically with 3-
digit 7-segment LED elements. The wind direction and its variance
are displayed with two concentric circles consisting both of 36
LEDs.
Figure 1-1 Front panel
The face size of 144 144 mm fits to standard DIN panels. The
slim line body design, however, enables mounting even to 115
133 mm panel openings.
Vaisalas digital wind sensors can be directly connected to the
digital inputs of the display. The WIND30 also has analog inputs
for connection of analog sensors and transmitters (e.g. WAT12) to
the display.
The standard opto-isolated RS-485 is typically used as a service
line or to chain several displays together. This offers easy means to
display wind data simultaneously in different locations. An

optional communication module, like the modem module, provides
means to receive data from measurement sites located far away.
A double-action switch is provided for controlling the displays
brightness, testing the LEDs, for acknowledgment of alarm and for
resetting the display.
The Wind Display is ready for operation once the power supply is
connected.
The display settings, calculations and input/output communications
are controlled by the configuration loaded into the displays
memory and can be changed to suit your application.
There is an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) monitoring the
lighting conditions of the environment to enable automatic control
of display LED brightness (if selected in configuration).
The Wind Display can be placed on a table, mounted in a panel or
on a wall or ceiling. A stand and panel installation kit are included
for these purposes.
Figure 1-2 Dimensions (mm) of the display

With the WIND30 display you can set up a multi-point wind
measurement system. Wind data from different locations can be
selected and shown on the same display, through different
channels. WIND30 keeps collecting data from all the channels
continuously, and therefore data from each channel - both
instantaneous and average values - are always immediately
available.
This manual gives instructions for installation, operation and
maintenance of the Multichannel Averaging Wind Display
WIND30. For information on the other wind system units like
WIND20 and WIND50 displays, wind sensors and transmitters, see
the corresponding manuals and other documentation.

2. INSTALLATION
2.1 Unpacking instructions
The delivery package includes:
- WIND30 display with its stand
- Users Guide (this manual)
- accessories (panel installation kit)
- warranty registration card: please read the instructions
printed on the card and send it to Vaisala
- a diskette containing the configuration file of your display
A suitable power supply (10.5 - 15.5 VDC) can be purchased from
your local Vaisala supplier.
Figure 2-1 Removing the protective film
Remove the protective film before taking the display into use (see
Figure 2-1).
Before leaving the factory, the WIND30 and its accessories have
been thoroughly tested and found to be in perfect operating
condition. However, we recommend that you check the contents of
the delivery for damage. Some problems may arise due to
transportation: look for loose screws or contacts and tighten them.

When it comes to general jumper settings, you should also check
that these comply to your application. See Section 2.2.
On the rear side of the display (see Figure 2-2) you will find the
plug connectors under a lid (a). To make enough room for the
sensor wires you may cut off one or more pieces (d) of the lid. A
grounding plate (c) is attached to the frame with a screw.
NOTE
Shield of the sensor/transmitter cable must be connected to the
grounding plate to minimize electromagnetic interference.
Figure 2-2 Rear view of the display
2.2 Jumper settings
A jumper is a small plastic-encased conductor that slips over two
jumper pins. To change a jumper setting, you may use a pair of
WIND30

2.4 Connecting power
The Wind Display is ready for operation once the power supply
(10.5 - 15.5 VDC) is connected. The WIND30 does not have a
power switch, nor a power ON indicator.
CAUTION
Power input return is internally connected to the
display frame. Avoid ground loops. Power supply
must float or have a negative pole ground to the
display frame potential.
2.5 Connecting wind sensors / transmitters
On the back side of the display there are 25 screw terminals. The
function of the connectors are indicated by the label attached to the
back cover of the unit, as follows:
Figure 2-7 Connector layout (label)
Sensors locating close to the display can be connected directly to
it. However, if distance is long (>0.1 km) a wind transmitter must
be used in between. Usually, the site equipments are supplied by a
local power unit such as WHP151.
WIND30
10
More detailed information on the sensor interface and examples of
wiring can be found in chapter 6 and appendixes A.
WARNING
A long cable between the sensor and the display
can cause a surge voltage dangerous to life, if a
lightning strike occurs close by. Always ground
the mast equipment case close to the mast with
short and low resistance cable.
2.6 Serial Communication
The serial I/O of the wind display is typically used to
a) configure the display
b) receive data from wind transmitter
c) send data to another devices (e.g. displays, PC)
When connecting displays to sensors/transmitters ensure that
ground differential will not exceed +12/-7 V max peak.
A more detailed technical description of the display I/O can be
found in chapter 6.
2.6.1 RS-232
The serial interface supports RS-232 without handshake signals.
The data is received via terminal 6 (RxD) and transmitted through
terminal 9 (TxD). RS-232 is used for short distance communication
such as for configuring the display with PC.
2.6.2 RS-485
The on board serial interface supports both 2- and 4-wire RS-485
communication. This differential communication method will work
for long distances (< 1 km) and provides means to connect several
units together.
WIND30
11
2.6.3 Digital current loop
The opto-isolated input can be used with digital current loop
transmitters such as the WAT11. Therefore WIND30 display can
be connected to the digital current loop of the WAD21M-system.
NOTE
If zero level current is not zero in the loop then an
external shunt resistor has to be connected across the
current loop inputs (LOOP+ and LOOP-). In most
cases a proper value for such a resistor is 1 k.
2.6.4 Module option
WIND30 display can be equipped with optional PCB module. Both
DSI485, an opto-isolated serial interface and DMX501, isolated
FSK modem interface are supported. The latter can be used to
access extreme distances (~10 km) between different units.
Module screw terminals are market as MODULE 1 ... 5 and are
located above the on board terminal block.
The modem module which is installed in communication module
sockets under the back cover of the display uses screw terminals 1
through 5 and are located above the on board terminal block.
The modules contains transient protection circuitry but they may
not survive the strong inrush current caused by lightning; therefore
an external surge arrester component, T61-C350 (Vaisala part no
2542), has to be used. The best position for the surge arrester is the
screw terminal strip where the outside line is connected to indoor
cabling. Connection of the surge arrester is shown in figure 2-8.
WIND30
12
Figure 2-8 Connection of surge arrester with DMX501 modem
module installed
If there is no terminal strip for the installation then the surge
arrester can be connected to the connector and grounding plate of
the display. Check that the ends of the surge arrester do not touch
to the grounding plate and short circuit the line.

3. OPERATION
The displays operation is governed by the configuration file
loaded into it. Some adjustments to its operation can be easily
made with the help of the control button and the switch of the
display.
3.1 Normal operation
Normally the WIND30 is used in one of the three basic operating
modes: instant, 2-minute or 10 minute average mode. In these
modes the display shows wind speed with minimum and maximum
values and wind direction and its variance (if so configured).
3.2 Selecting display channel
With INST-2 min and 10 min modes one is able to change between
different display channels.
Pressing the display channel into the middle position will show the
channel number at the MIN field. By pressing the button down to
the bottom position and releasing it will change the displayed
channels.
3.3 Alarms
The WIND30 may give an alarm when the wind measurement data
exceeds the set limits or when an error occurs.
Wind alarm can be set to become active when wind speed exceeds
specified value and wind blows from defined direction (or sector).
Note that alarms are not necessarily enabled in the configuration
loaded into the displays memory. See Section 4.4.2 for details
about configuring the alarm.
When an alarm appears:
the ALR LED starts flashing and
the relay drive will become activated, depending on your
application.
WIND30
14
To determine the channel(s) where the alarm(s) appeared, press the
control button into the middle position and read the channel
number(s) from the MAX field.
When an alarm appears and you have configured DISPCFG
ALARMPRIORITY 1:
the ALR LED starts flashing,
the relay drive will become activated,
the middle field of the display alternates between
showing the speed reading of the current channel and
ALr and
the MAX field shows the channel(s) where the alarm(s)
appeared.
To enable sound alarms, connect a buzzer to the relay drive output
(pin 23).
An error is activated if display detects a) data memory error or b)
will not receive data within defined time limit.
In case of data memory error E0 or E1 is displayed, relay drive is
activated and XRAM ERROR-message is sent out via serial
interface.
Data timeout error may occure with all the other
sensors/transmitters supported, but not with WA- and WMS301
sensors, when connected directly to the display. Should error
occure, Err will be displayed, the alarming channel is shown at
the upper left display. The ALR LED and relay drive is activated,
as well.
3.4 Operating modes
The rotary switch lets you choose between different operating
modes:
10 min - 2 min - INST - - TST - ALR
The control button has two active positions:
First movement: press the button into middle position
Second movement: press the button into bottom position
WIND30
15
Control button operation depends on the selected operation mode.
3.4.1 10 min Mode
Speed display in the middle will show the 10-minute average of the
wind speed in the format specified in the configuration (see
Paragraph 4.4.1). The MAX field will show the maximum speed
measured during the past 10 minutes. The MIN field will show the
minimum speed measured during the past 10 minutes or the
channel number (see Paragraph 4.4.1)
Display channel can be changed with the control button (see
Section 3.2).
3.4.2 2 min Mode
Speed display in the middle will show the 2-minute average of the
wind speed in the format specified in the configuration (see
Paragraph 4.4.1). The MAX field will show the maximum speed
measured during the past 2 minutes. The MIN field will show the
minimum speed measured during the past 2 minutes or the channel
number (see Paragraph 4.4.1)
Section 3.2).
3.4.3 INST Mode
Speed display in the middle will show the instant value of the wind
speed in the format specified in the configuration (see Paragraph
4.4.1). The MAX field will show the maximum speed measured
during the past five seconds. The MIN field will show the
minimum speed measured during the past five seconds or the
channel number (see Paragraph 4.4.1)
Section 3.2).
WIND30
16
3.4.4 Brightness Mode
Pressing and holding down the control button in middle position
will gradually increase the brightness of display LEDs until the
maximum is reached. To decrease brightness, press and hold down
the control button in bottom position.
Note that if automatic brightness control has been configured to be
active, the brightness is automatically adjusted according to
environment lighting conditions.
3.4.5 TST Mode
The LEDs will be turned on one after another and the numerical
segments will be tested by scrolling numbers in the fields. During
the second cycle all the elements are illuminated.
To reset the display, press the button all the way down and keep it
pressed until the display switches off (for approximately 5
seconds). You will then see the software version displayed in the
numerical field as the display is restarted.
If you have a maintenance terminal connection to the display at the
time of reset and keep the button pressed for more than 5s , you see
the identification of the display like in the following example:
WD30
SW Version 1.10
Serial number: S12345
This feature is useful for checking communication between the
devices.
3.4.6 ALR Mode
When you select the alarm mode, the MIN field shows the channel
that was active in one of the normal operating modes and the alarm
state. Note that an alarm may have gone off on another channel
than the one previously active.
WIND30

To change the alarm state, press the control button into bottom
position and hold it down. The different states are toggled in the
display. The state that is displayed when you release the button
becomes the active selection.
To temporarily disable the alarm:
In either INST, 2 min or 10 min mode, select the channel where
the alarm is active (see Section 3.2).
Select ALR mode again. Press the control button into its middle
position and release it. A2 is displayed. The ALR LED will stay
continuously on to remind you that alarm has been disabled.
Once the wind speed decreases below the set limit by more than
20 %, the alarm is disactivated and may become active once the
limit is exceeded again.
WIND30

3.5 Calculations and display rules
A static correction factor can be set for the direction (magnetic
deviation, cross arm position), see details of configuration in
Paragraph 4.4.2.
You can configure the display to use special data processing and
displaying rules with the ICAO and MDISCONT parameters. See
details of configuration in Paragraph 4.4.2.
The marked discontinuity (MDISCONT) is defined to occur when
there is an abrupt and sustained change in the wind direction of 30
degrees or more, with wind speed of 5 m/s or more, lasting at least
two minutes. Should this happen, the data beyond the previous 2
minutes are not used for calculations. The 10-minute speed and
direction averages are then replaced by the 2-minute values,
respectively.
The differences between the ICAO and standard processing rules
(MET applications) are shown in the following table.

4. CONFIGURATION
The WIND30 is delivered with a default configuration loaded into
its memory. The configuration file is an ASCII text file that
governs the functions of the WIND30. For example, the wind
speed unit is defined in the configuration file.
This chapter describes how to change the configuration. Before
you can do that, you need to establish a maintenance terminal
connection between your computer and the wind display.
4.1 Maintenance terminal connection
Figure 4-1 RS Cable (ZZ45101) connections
If the 1 k resitor is missing from your RS-cable, place the jumper
X10 onto pins 2 and 3 for RS232 connection, but return it to
X10/1-2 for RS485 operation. Ensure that the X8 jumper connects
pins 2 and 3.
After power up (or reset) the communication port 1 predefined
communication parameters are
Baudrate 9600
Data bits 8
Parity none
Stop bits 1
Flow control none
WIND30

for 5s before the unit enters to use the settings defined by the
configuration. This feature helps to access service connection if the
configuration settings are not know. Do as follows:
1 Connect your PC to the displays
2 Start the terminal program with above communication
parameters
3 Power up (or reset) the display
4 Within 5s enter OPEN
4.2 Changing the configuration
There are two ways to make changes to the configuration of your
display: either you enter separate commands (so called command
line configuration) or, preferably, you can modify and download a
configuration file that is in fact a collection of these same
commands in ASCII format.
Using a configuration file to change the configuration is preferable
because then you have a backup to verify for later use, see Section
4.5 for more details. If you do want to make some fast changes to
the configuration by giving separate commands, you are advised to
write the changes down.
NOTE
The previously typed command can be repeated

4.5 Loading configuration file
The configuration file is an ASCII text file that consists of
command lines and can be edited with any text editor.
It is a good idea to keep a backup of the original configuration file
and make the necessary changes to a copy of that file. This allows
you to keep track of a fully functional configuration and of all the
changes.
The display reads one line of the configuration file at a time and
immediately executes the command on that line. To allow adequate
time for processing the command, you should delay the
transmission of the next line: set the line delay to 100 ms.
To configure the display by loading a configuration file:
1. Connect your PC to the display
2. Start the communication program (with matching settings
and 100 ms delay between each line sent).
NOTE
The display default settings are 9600, none, 8, 1.
3. Connect the display to the power supply.
4. Enter OPEN within 5s after power up or reset.
5. Send the configuration file to the display.
6. To take the configuration into use, the display has to be
reset. If your configuration file does not include RESET as
the last command, reset the display with the control button
or by sending the RESET command after the file has been
sent.
4.6 Default configuration
A configuration has been loaded into the memory of your display.
In the beginning of the configuration file (*.cfg) you will find a
short description of the procedure for loading the file. The
following listing shows the default configuration.

input that is applicable to RS-232, RS-485 or current loop. 2-wire
RS-485 transceiver is typically used to chain displays together, and
to receive data from data loggers like QLI50, QLC50 or MILOS.
Using opto-isolated inputs together with SD+ and SD-, a 4-wire
RS-485 communication can be used. However, only one input
method can be used at a time.
If the display is equipped with optional isolated RS-485
communication module, then the communication is automatically
switched to the module i/o pins (module1..5) - the fixed lines are
ignored. However, if the display is equipped with modem
communication module, the configuration, for example, is still
supported via these fixed i/o lines.
The communication channel ComNo 0 is managed by so called 'sw
uart' and is physically the input line labeled as XRQ. The channel
ComNo 1 uses CPUs RxD and TxD hardware. Refering to the
figure 6-2 one is able to see that jumper X8 is used to connect
opto-isolated input data via ComNo 1. The channel ComNo 2
referes to the optional communication module which can be
isolated RS-485 or Modem. The jumper X10 is used with RS-232
connection.
