Vantage Vue console average wind speed calculation
« on: December 27, 2017, 08:52:42 PM »
How does the Vue console come up with avg speeds in tenths of mph; example: 2min avg: 0.4 10 min 0.8 when the current value is a whole number? I've always wondered how it calculates that. Thanks!

"Mathematical average" of whole numbers can effectively be a decimal number. Take 1 & 2 for example, average is 1.5
