Determining Sensor Status

Sensor status values give indication about the general status of the
sensor interfaces. You have two alternatives to view the status value for
a sensor:

1.

For any sensor, enter the following service terminal command:

LASTVAL <measurement_name> status

For example:

/ > LASTVAL TAMeasQMH101_1 status
Status:1 Value:0

For details on the LASTVAL command, refer to section

LASTVAL Command on page 130

.

2.

For conventional sensors, open the Calibration window from the
Settings menu in the AWS Client software; see

Figure 60 on page

125

. The sensor list is displayed on the left side of the window. The

Status field shows the status of the selected sensor. To read the
latest sensor status and measurement values, click the Refresh
button.

Table 29 on page 126

describes the other fields in the

Calibration window.

NOTE

Sensors with their own measurement interfaces and algorithms, for
example, Vaisala Ceilometer or Vaisala Present Weather Detector, do
not appear in the sensor list of the Sensor Calibration tab.
