This Weather station is an autonomous meteorological station designed for monitoring the atmospheric conditions at a site. It is powered by a small solar panel and battery that makes this system appropriate for use in isolated areas or in places experiencing extreme weather. This kit includes windspeed, wind direction, temperature, humidity and pressure sensors.
Features:
- Time stamped recording more than 200,000 measurements.
- Data transmission of the measurements via GPRS on an email address and web publishing on meteo.jdc.ch.
- Programmable frequency of transmission according on season.
- Autonomously powered from small solar panel in a stainless steel case.
- Compact design.

GPRS Function:
The GPRS modem transmits data via the GSM network. To make use of the latter, an active SIM card must be installed, with or without a subscription. The type of subscription linked to this SIM card needs to permit data transmission via GPRS. Options that include the volume of data could be appropriate.
For information, one data transmission can be between 5 kB and 30 kB, depending on the interval between sendings.
Please note: the SIM card should be configured without a security PIN code before it is inserted into the device. This can be carried out on an ordinary mobile phone.
