Setting up the Veinasa Visibility Sensor
Manual: Veinasa Visibility Sensor Manual
Parts
The Vaisala temperature and humidity probe has a few key components when it comes to setting up the instrument.
- Main Body
- Wires
- Green - T/R-
- Yellow - T/R+
- Red - Power (positive)
- Black - Grounding power (negative)
Setting up the Sensor
By now, you should have your Raspberry Pi computer completely set up, with a DAQ HAT. To continue, you will need:
- some sort of DC Power Jack connector
- USB to RS422/485 converter
- Extra wire
- Connect the DC Power Jack to power
- Connect the red wire to the positive connection
- connect the black wire to the negative connection
- Wire the probe into the Converter
- Connect the yellow wire to T/R+
- Connect the green wire to T/R-
- Connect the extra wire to GND and the negative connection on the DC power jack, as shown above.
- If you have properly set up the ADPAA, you can now run the python program that coincides with your instrument and observe the data.
