10. Troubleshooting

A common cause for erroneous, turbidity-sensor data is poor sensor

connections to the datalogger.

Problem:

Unit will not respond when attempting serial communications.

Suggestion:

Check the power (Red is +V and Black is Ground) and signal (White is SDI-12

Data) lines to ensure proper connection to the datalogger. Check the

datalogger program to ensure that the same port the SDI-12 data line is

connected to is specified in the measurement instruction.
