FIGURE 4-1. CMP3-L Schematic
When Short Cut for Windows software is used to create the datalogger
program, the sensor should be wired to the channels shown in the wiring
diagram created by Short Cut.
A differential voltage measurement is recommended because it has better noise
rejection than a single-ended measurement. If a differential channel is not
available, a single-ended measurement can be used.
Connections to Campbell Scientific dataloggers for a Differential measurement
are given in Table 4-1. A user supplied jumper wire should be connected
between the low side of the differential input and ground (AG or
) to keep
the signal in common mode range.
Connections to Campbell Scientific dataloggers for a Single-Ended
measurement are given in Table 4-2.
