7.6.2.3 CMP21 Wiring

A CMP21 purchased from Campbell Scientific has different
wiring than a CMP21 purchased directly from Kipp & Zonen.

NOTE

The CMP21’s pyranometer can be 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. If a differential channel is not available, a single-ended
measurement can be used.

A single-ended channel and a voltage excitation channel are used to measure
the CMP21’s internal thermistor.

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

7-4. 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

7-5.
