Powering
The products require a nominal 24 VDC/VAC power supply
maintaining a voltage of 18 ... 30 VDC or 20 ... 26 VAC for all
load conditions and all mains voltages. Although the power input
includes a half-wave rectifier, it is recommended to use a DC
supply to avoid current peaks.
Connections to 24 VAC Power Supply
Connecting more than one transmitter to a single 24VAC
transformer forms a common loop and increases the risk of a

short-circuit. Therefore, a separate floating supply for each
transmitter is recommended (see Figure 1).
If several transmitters share a common transformer, the phase (~)
must always be connected to the 24 V connector in each
transmitter (see Figure 2).

Mounting the GMW115 Transmitter
Mount the back plate onto a wall using screws. Make sure the
back plate is mounted in with the same orientation as in Figure 4.

SERIAL COMMUNICATION INTERFACES
The modules support RS232 or RS485 communication. RS232 is set as
factory default. The RS485 interface is selected by serial command. The
communication settings for both interfaces are: 9600, N, 8, 1.
RS485 Interface
The interface is non-isolated two-wire interface with no internal bus
termination. If termination is needed, use RC termination (100 Ω resistor
in series with 1 nF capacitor) at both ends of the bus. See serial
commands list below to activate the RS485 interface.
RS232 Interface
Use the RS-232 interface for setting the operating parameters. The
connection cable between PC and module (a serial COM adapter for
maintenance purposes) is available from Vaisala (order code:
19040GM).
