Ammonit Wind Farm Monitoring Systems (SCADA)

SCADA wind farm monitoring with Ammonit Meteo-40 data loggers

Once the wind farm is set up and running, its best performance has to be ensured. To do so, it is essential to monitor
and check its operation. Meteo-40 can easily be integrated in SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) sys-
tems to provide reliable comparative meteorological data. Considering the measurement data recorded by Meteo-40,
for example, predictions about the annual energy production of the wind farm can be verified. Meteo-40 records
measurement data, which is used by wind farm operators and investors, as well as for forecasting reasons.

With its configurable Modbus Register Map Meteo-40 is designed for operation in most existing SCADA systems. The
necessary parameters are configured via the user-friendly Meteo-40 web interface.

Ammonit Wind Farm Monitoring Systems (SCADA)

Convenient implementation of Meteo-40 in your SCADA system

In order to install the data logger in a SCADA system, it has to be connected via RS485 or Ethernet (TCP/IP) to the
wind farm network. Meteo-40 uses the standard protocols Modbus TCP/IP and Modbus RTU for data transmission.
The measurement data can conveniently be retrieved via the Modbus Register Map.

Meteo-40 and Modbus

Measurement values are represented as single precision IEEE 754 floating-point numbers, which are stored in two
subsequent 16-bit Modbus registers. Date/time values, i.e. year, month, day, hour, minute, and second, are repre-
sented as decimal values, which are stored in one 16-bit Modbus register each.

With regard to the editable Modbus register map, live data of all active channels and switches as well as statistical
data can be collected. The following statistics are available:
