How to Use
-
Real-time Data Viewing: Connect the SCI acquisition module, which can automatically identify the Lark Weather Station. The SCI DAQ module displays the Lark Weather Station's data on the screen, turning it into a handheld weather instrument for real-time monitoring of meteorological data.
-
Standalone Deployment: Connect to a 5V power source or adapter, and the Lark Weather Station will automatically commence data collection and recording. By default, it collects and stores data every 30 seconds. After collection, you can connect the weather station to a computer to export the data. The data is saved in CSV table format, allowing you to quickly plot data curves and facilitate further analysis for expeditious completion of meteorological exploration experiments.
-
Integration with Controllers: Connect the Lark Weather Station module to Arduino or other controllers, enabling rapid acquisition of meteorological data through programming. With the ability to customize Arduino programs, you gain flexibility in utilizing meteorological data, providing limitless possibilities for various applications. For instance, you can connect it to controllers with WiFi capabilities, such as the UNIHIKER board, to create an online digital weather station.
