6. Datalogger Programming

The CNR1 outputs four voltages that typically range from 0 to 15 mV for the
CM3 sensors, and

± 5 mV for the CG3 sensors. A differential voltage

measurement (VoltDiff or Instruction 2) is recommended because it has better
noise rejection than a single-ended measurement. If differential channels are
not available, single-ended measurements (VoltSe or Instruction 1) can be
used. The acceptability of a single-ended measurement can be determined by
simply comparing the results of single-ended and differential measurements
made under the same conditions.

For the CR3000 and CR5000, one differential channel and a current excitation
channel are required to measure the PT-100.

For the other dataloggers, two differential channels and the 4WPB100 module
are required to measure the Pt-100 temperature sensor.

The 4WPB100 is included with the CNR1 sensor purchased from
CSI.
