This wind gauge package includes the WG-Lynx wind gauge plus the: WG-SA-CTRL controller unit, which allows the unit to operate independently for field events. This standalone ultrasonic wind gauge package uses World Athletics-approved ultrasonic technology to provide accurate wind speed and direction data. While the standard WG-Lynx wind gauge only operates when connected to a Finishlynx computer, the WG-Lynx-SA includes a handheld: controller unit with LED display. This added controller: allows timers to use the wind gauge without FinishLynx to capture, record, and read wind speeds for field events.
The wind gauge is small, lightweight, and operates in harsh weather conditions. It also has no moving parts, ensuring maintenance-free operation. The anemometer package comes equipped with a controller, tripod, carrying case, and 60 meter serial connection cable for great mobility and easy setup.
