Proper entries will vary with program and datalogger channel, and input location assignments.

** On the 21X use the 5000 mV slow range.

5. Long Lead Lengths

There is a 0.06 mV/foot voltage drop in the CS105 signal leads. This voltage
drop, in long lead lengths, will raise the barometric reading by approximately
1.1 mb per 100 feet.

For lead lengths greater than 20 feet, use the differential instruction
(Instruction 2) to measure the CS105.
