Variables

  • U ... First horizontal wind component (x)
  • V ... Second horizontal wind component (y)
  • W ... Vertical wind component (z)
  • T_SONIC ... Sonic temperature
  • SA_DIAG_TYPE ... Status address
    • defines which particular aspect of the anemometer the following data field (SA_DIAG_VAL) refers to
      • Address Function
      • 00 Error codes
      • 01 Anemometer configuration
      • 02 Data output configuration 1
      • 03 Data output configuration 2
      • 04 Error code history
      • 05 Transducer gain levels
      • 06 Anemometer Type
  • SA_DIAG_VAL ... Status data
    • Called StaD (Status Data) in manual
    • SA_DIAG_VAL is rather complex and can tak on a lot of meanings.
    • Has to be interpreted in combination with SA_DIAG_TYPE, which gives the type of SA_DIAG_VAL.
    • Saved as an integer value, e.g. 47.
    • The integer can be converted to binary, e.g. 47 becomes 0b101111 , whereby the first two characters 0b mean that this is binary format.
    • From the binary, detailed information can be extracted, depending on which bits in the binary are set to 1 or 0.
    • Please refer to the manual for detailed information about what the different bits mean when they are 1 or zero.
  • INC_XY ... Inclinometer, alternatively x (odd record numbers) and y (even record numbers)

BICO Settings

  • For an explanation of the different variable property settings, please see _help_bico_settings.md.

Before BICO, the binary conversion was done in FCT FluxCalcTool:

Details

  • Use of this format started somewhen in 2017 with an update of the sonicread script used to log eddy covariance data.
