Meteo-Online

Meteo-Online is a software for detecting, filing, and displaying data of meteorological measuring instruments. The display of the data is carried out graphically as diagram and/­or as text The user has the possibility to place the display-elements free on the screen, and to save them.
The operation of the program is context-sensitive, i.e. by pressing the right mouse button there are menus displayed in a window, which allow specific settings.
Meteo-Online provides several options for configuration and start of the archive. Hour’s- as well as day’s-files can be written with settable averaging times.

Meteo-Online is divided into two programs:

• Server
• Visualization

These two independent programs exchange data, where the server has the function to pre-process the data from the connected instruments, to file and to provide them for the visualization (client). The visualization, on the other hand, inquires data cyclically from the server, and presents them in graphic form.

Meteo-Online is internally divided into two programs:

• This concept has the following advantages:
• The server is able to document data without visualization.
• The server is able to administrate several terminals at the same time (limited only by the number of physical interfaces).
• Server and visualization can run on different computers in a network
• Several visualizations can access simultaneously to one server.
• The server is started automatically on booting the PC, and documents the data in the background
• The visualization is started only on request.
