About this product

Hitec Weather Deluxe

Hitec Weather deluxe is a fully featured cloud sensor with integrated ambient and rain sensor. Utilising an RS232 connection allows a much longer cable run than is possible with USB.  The unit is designed to be located outdoors permanently so you never need to miss a clear sky again. Hitec Weather Deluxe comes with a comprehensive software suite containing advanced features not found on competing products.  Just some of these features are listed below;

• Sensor parameters are fully adjustable to suit your location and climate.
• RS232 cable allows unit to be located up to 150ft from the host PC.
• Power and signal are provided through a single cable.
• E-Mail alerts are fully configurable so you get the information you need when you need it.
• Astronomical calculations are done on the fly to allow factors such as twilight and moonlight to be factored into your observing decisions.  This removes the need for a light sensor.
• Separate and highly accurate ambient temperature sensor is located outside the box so as not to be affected by electronic heat.
• Rain sensor will alert you at the first drop of rain potentially saving you a lot of money should a sudden rain shower pass over. Rain sensor integrates a controllable inbuilt heater to avoid false alarms caused by dew or frost.
