GroWeatherlink lets you create a unique, personalized database using the data collected by GroWeather along with your own records and observations. User-friendly charts with intuitive plotting controls give you the information you need to: help analyze the combined effects of weather, irrigation, and fertilizing on crop growth and yield; predict the emergence of plant diseases and pests; and plan for crop maturation and harvesting.

With GroWeatherlink, you can monitor an essentially unlimited number of:

• Crops or fields, each with name and planting date, number of days since planting, record of evapotranspiration (with user-entered K-factors), record of irrigation, and notes regarding crop condition and yield.
• Growing degree-day totals, each with name of pest or crop, start date, upper and lower thresholds in °F or °C, and the number of degree-days at which the pest is expected to emerge or the crop is predicted to mature.
• Temperature-humidity hour totals, each with name of pest or disease, start date, temperature and humidity thresholds, and the number of temperature-humidity hours at which the pest is expected to emerge.
• Number of hours that leaves are wet and temperature is within a user-defined range.•Hours of daylight above solar radiation threshold.

The GroWeatherlink Software and the GroWeatherlink/ET Data Logger are sold separately. The GroWeatherlink/ET Data Logger is a hardware plug-in for your GroWeather Station. It has two uses: it performs the evapotranspiration calculations for the GroWeather Evapotranspiration System, and it stores the GroWeatherlink data until it is transferred to your computer by the GroWeatherlink software.

Application Note:
You can also connect the GroWeatherlink to a telephone modem, or a short haul wired modem allowing you to separate the weather station many miles away. This is useful for monitoring/logging weather at remote sites or climate controls of other buildings. The output is in standard RS-232C interface, with both a 9 pin and 25 pin DB style connector included to allow easy interfacing to a wide variety of communications equipment.

User-friendly software features include:

• Instant weather bulletin displays the weather on one screen.
• Choose any function, and graph on a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis.
• Graph two days, weeks, months, or years on the same screen.
• Display two different functions on the same graph.
• See, for example, how temperature is related to barometric pressure.
• Log data and retrieve it for any day of the year

With GroWeatherlink, you can also:

• Graph as many functions as you wish simultaneously on a daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly basis.
• Zoom in to see details; zoom out to see trends.
• Save graphs and templates for later use.
• Update bulletins and strip charts automatically as data changes.
• Generate "Weather Watcher" reports for sending to the National Climatic Data Center.

With the data storage and transfer features you can:

• Store data every 1, 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, or 120 minutes; the data logger will store 16 hours' or 3, 7, 10, 21, 42, or 85 days' worth of data, depending upon the storage interval.
• Transfer data from the data logger to your computer as often as you like to create your own weather database.
• Transfer data automatically each day (software must be running).
