Upgrade your earlier-model ULTIMETER to the latest ULTIMETER 2100 with PRO Anemometer and WeatherText! ULTIMETER® 2100 is the best in its class. The much-anticipated successor to our most popular weather station ever (the ULTIMETER 2000, world-renowned standard for performance and reliability in a home weather station), the ULTIMETER 2100 features a stunning platinum-tone housing with brilliant blue display backlighting. To improve the user interface still further, an illuminated keypad provides exceptional visibility in darkness or low-light conditions. The ULTIMETER 2100 utilizes Peet Bros.’ patented and proven weather sensor technology, including our unique all-digital wind sensor, incomparable ULTIMETER PRO Anemometer, featuring exceptional response in all wind conditions, including very low wind speeds (typical starting threshold 1.5 mph! here’s why).
It also features direct serial data output including WeatherText®, and is APRS-ready. And it offers the unsurpassed performance and reliability of cabled sensors – the professional’s choice (see Why are cabled sensors better?) It has all the features of its predecessors – all the features you’ve asked us for – and a few you might not have thought of. Its microprocessor is 8 TIMES FASTER and has 4 TIMES THE MEMORY of our earlier weather stations. Here’s what it does with all that power:
- The ULTIMETER 2100 includes BAROMETRIC PRESSURE and numeric pressure change over a 3 hour period (which is the U.S. Weather Service standard interval) plus a preset barometric STORM ALERT, WIND SPEED, WIND DIRECTION (click to see sensor), OUTDOOR TEMPERATURE, INDOOR TEMPERATURE, WIND CHILL, TIME, DATE, OUTDOOR HUMIDITY (with optional sensor ), DEW POINT, AND HEAT INDEX; INDOOR HUMIDITY (with optional sensor ), and RAINFALL (with optional sensor ).
- The ULTIMETER 2100 features a VERSATILE 7-MODE SERIAL PORT that can accept remote commands, making it easy to communicate with external devices to transmit the data or collect it remotely by phone, modem, or radio link. The 5-minute packet mode is perfect for economical radio “beacon” transmission. The 2100 comes “APRS-Ready,” requiring only direct cable connection to a TNC.
- A second Serial Data Port connection (new feature) is available in the ULTIMETER 2100’s sensor junction box (order separately, not included in upgrade kit), delivering greater flexibility in the location and connection of THE WEATHER PICTURE, PC Weather Data Logger, or other peripheral weather accessory.
- The system has an exclusive 9-BANK MEMORY SYSTEM for highest and lowest readings: today’s, each of the previous 7 days’, and long-term. Say you had a major storm two weeks ago. You can save all the interesting extreme values to show friends weeks later, yet still display all of today’s highest and lowest readings, as well as all of yesterday’s highs and lows. You’ll also see the exact time and date every high and low occurred.
- You can reset each long-term high and low memory individually, or you can use a MASTER RESET to clear all long term high and low memories simultaneously. This feature makes it particularly easy to keep monthly records or to monitor the highs and lows while you are away for a week or two.
- The weather station includes BUILT-IN STATIC ELECTRICITY DISCHARGE PROTECTION for all outdoor sensors. The ULTIMETER 2100 is the most “bullet-proof” full-capability home weather station you can buy.
- The system also features a unique RAIN RATE ALARM, which serves as an adjustable flash flood alert, and is compatible with all of our rain gauge models. A predictive battery test circuit warns you when the battery is getting weak.
- The ULTIMETER 2100 has a full array of adjustable ALARMS and an optional electrical EXTERNAL ALARM OUTPUT.
- Optional sensors include Humidity Sensors and Rain Gauges (we have several models to choose from).
