7.6.2.2 CMP6 and CMP11 Wiring

A CMP6 or CMP11 purchased from Campbell Scientific has
different wiring than a pyranometer purchased directly from
Kipp & Zonen.

NOTE

The pyranometer is measured using either differential analog channels or
single-ended analog channels.

A differential voltage measurement is recommended because it has better noise
rejection than a single-ended measurement.

Connections to Campbell Scientific dataloggers for a differential measurement
are given in Table

7-2. 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

7-3.
