This document summarizes the firmware changes of Vaisala Ceilometer CL31 with CLE321 engine board up to firmware version 3.204.

Version 3.204

Standard version.

This standard version includes ASEA messages, so a separate ASEA version is no longer needed.

Changes compared to version 3.000:

  • Airplane filter height made configurable.
    • Set using advanced level command set factory algo_sensit airplane_filter_height. Value given in meters in the range 0–1000.
    • Read using command get params algorithm.
  • Fix software update on old boards with old flash chip.
  • Name and uptime added to dump command.
  • Blower self-test logic changed.
    • Changed to check the blower (out) temperature rise instead of difference to ambient (blower in) temperature. The logic is now as follows:
      1. Turn blower on and blower heater off.
      2. Wait 2 minutes for cooling down in case heater has been on.
      3. Turn blower heater on.
      4. Wait 2 minutes for temperature to rise.
      5. Check that blower temperature has risen more than 4 °C.
    • The blower self-test is not run if the external temperature is above +40 °C.
  • ASEA messages included in standard version.
