The same sensor with a home made digital on/off switch works as well. See this page on how to make wind trigger.
If you want the sensors and wish to make your own digital wind sensor, just let me know and I will have two wires coming out where the Anemometer wires normally go. Hook your switch to them and away you go.
How to use these sensors is at bottom of this page.
Like all my sensors the program for tracking works the same as my regular east/west sensors. a few minutes delay on west and about 7 to 10 minutes delay on east for reverse inhibit. The big difference is that the tracker will not park to east at night. It will park at the midday position, if left as I preset the tilt sensors which are inside the LED sensor box. Or, You can adjust the tilt sensors by opening the LED sensor box and gently bend the tilt sensors to your desired parking position. BUT BE CAUTIOUS. Make sure that you have both switches tilted so they are both in the OFF position at the desired time/location to stop. I will add another photo below regarding this soon. But your tilt switches must be both OFF at the position parked.
Once the sensor has decided its too windy, or you push the park button to make it park, remember it will go into a 30 minute sleep cycle once parked. Nothing will work until the 30 sleep has expired, or, you can turn power off at the main switch, count 5 seconds and switch it back on and it will start tracking again. The parking feature, manual or auto park will NOT work unless the main switch is in the autotracking possition.
