                                 PRESS RELEASE

                      ISS RECOMMENDS SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR
           DISSIDENT SLATE OF DIRECTORS FOR WINLAND ELECTRONICS, INC.

New York, NY, August 14, 2001 - Winland Shareholders' Protective Committee
announced today that Institutional Shareholders Services ("ISS"), the nation's
leading proxy voting advisory service, has recommended that its clients vote to
elect the Committee's slate of nominees to be elected at the Special Meeting of
Winland Electronics, Inc. (AMEX-WEX). Shareholders' are scheduled to vote on the
removal and election of the dissident director slate on August 21, 2001.

ISS, which provides proxy advisory services to institutional investors, mutual
funds, and other fiduciaries, noted in its August 13, 2001 report, "Although
management may have taken steps to turn the company around, it appears to be too
little too late as these efforts have not had a positive effect on the market
price of Winland's stock. We recommend a vote FOR the dissident nominees.

Ralph Call, Chairman of the Committee, said, "We are very pleased that ISS, a
highly respected independent advisor, recommends support for the removal of the
incumbent board of directors and the election of our experienced slate of
nominees. This recommendation reaffirms our belief that the Company's current
leaders are not up to the task of turning the company around."

"We strongly encourage our fellow shareholders to follow ISS's recommendation
and vote to elect the Committee's slate of directors," concluded Call.

If shareholders have any questions with respect to voting, they are directed to
call D.F. King & Co., Inc. (1-800-628-8509).

Institutional Shareholder Services, based in Rockville, MD, is the leading
provider of proxy voting and corporate governance services, serving more than
700 clients worldwide. ISS analysts research and recommend votes for 20,000
shareholder meetings each year.
