Estación meteorológica GPS

The weather station TG 053A measures the outdoor temperature, the wind speed and light. It detects rain and daylight fall, and receives date and time by radio signal DCF77. Moreover, it calculates the exact position of the sun (azimuth and elevation) using the site coordinates, the date and the time. The compact TG 053 unit houses the sensors, data processing electronics and the connection with the KNX bus. The values measured are sent to the KNX bus as physical values (2x8 bits ou 1 bit). The position of the sun is calculated using the date, time and the settings downloaded in the appliance (site coordinates) and may then be sent on the KNX bus. Each output has communication objects indicating the measured and calculated values. The state of outputs depends on one or more levels. Thresholds can be defined by settings or the communication objects. The weather station TG 053 includes an annual clock and a weekly clock. The clock channels can switch the outputs using the communication objects. The weekly clock controls up to four different time settings for each day of the week. The annual clock can be used to define up to three periods in the year with two daily ON/OFF commands for each of them. The switching times can be defined by settings or the communication objects. The weather station also has 8 logical AND gates and 8 logical OR gates, each with four inputs. All control events, time programs, and the 8 logical inputs (such as communication objects) can be used as inputs of logical gates. The output of each gate can be configured in 1-bit or 2 x 8-bit format. The KNX is configured using the ETS software. In version ETS 3 and higher, the settings menus of the TG 053 feature an optimal graphical presentation.
