Relative
Humidity (OWTRH)
Description:
This card uses the DS2438 1-wire
IC to measure temperature, the +5V power supply and the reading
from a Honeywell HIH-3610
RH sensor. From these 3 readings the temperature, relative
humidity in %, dew point temperature and vapor pressure deficit
can all be calculated. The probe is mounted inside a radiation
shield that can be hung from the ceiling or a cross arm. The
probe can be used to measure indoor or outdoor temperature and
humidity for applications such as greenhouse environmental control.
Card Type: 3
OWconfig:
The "Type" must be 3 as described
above. The "Mode" must be "Separate power".
Modbus Register
Information:
This device has four Modbus input
registers on the ICONIO board, temperature, power supply value,
RH raw reading and an unused register.
