RAWS-F Remote Automated Weather Station for Fire Weather

4.5.2.5 Troubleshooting

If a problem is suspected, check the sensor cable. Disconnect the connector
and look for damaged pins. Try connecting a substitute sensor. Should the
2-D sonic sensor be damaged, fails to output data, or sends a nonzero
diagnostic, obtain an RMA number before returning this sensor to Campbell
Scientific for repair.

4.6 Barometric Pressure (optional)

4.6.1 General Description

The Setra Barometric Pressure Sensor (pn CS100) shown in FIGURE 4-6 is a
capacitive pressure transducer that uses Setra’s electrical capacitor technology
for barometric pressure measurements over the 600 to 1100 millibar range.
The CS100 is supplied in the triggered mode, in which the datalogger switches
12 Vdc power to the barometer before the measurement. The datalogger then
powers down the barometer after the measurement to conserve power.

4.6.2 Wiring

The CS100 is mounted inside the RAWS environmental enclosure and the
sensor wires are attached to the CR1000 printed circuit board wiring panel.
