Re: Photos of the insides of Fine Offset sensors.

Hi, The distance from the PCB to the center of the battery contacts is 7mm on mine. I think you mean from the inside of the "battery box" plastic case, because AA cells are exactly 14 mm in diameter (they're also known as "14500" cells, i.e. 14 mm in diameter and 50.0 mm long). ...

Re: Photos of the insides of Fine Offset sensors.

Does anyone know where to obtain the battery connectors from the transmitter PCB? The distance from the PCB to the center of the battery contacts is 7mm on mine. Looks like there are two tabs that slot into the PCB for soldering. The closest I can find are these: http://www.keyelco.com/category.cfm/...

Re: Wind Readings Stopped

Try connecting a "pullup" resistor of perhaps 100 kohms (or maybe lower when testing with a multimeter) from the battery supply down to the Wind input. This worked - thanks! Wind speed readings are back. Although I used a 10k resistor as that is what I had on-hand. Here is a picture of th...

Re: Wind Readings Stopped

Thanks for the suggestion. Do you happen to know offhand which pin it is on the RJ11 socket? It would be quite a bit of effort for me to taken my mast down to get the anemometer or try to use a multimeter with the TX connected to the mast. Thanks!

Wind Readings Stopped

Maplin FO WH1080, 433MHz. Recently I noticed that the wind direction was working but the wind speed was always zero. Rain was OK. I swapped the wind/rain RJ11 connectors at the TX and I saw that the wind speed sensor was registering as lots of rain. Flicking the rain collector showed zero wind gust....
