Connecting to a Non-Decagon Logger

The VP-3 sensor may be purchased for use with non-Decagon
data loggers. These sensors typically come pre-configured with
stripped and tinned (pigtail) lead wires for use with screw
terminals. Refer to your distinct logger manual for details on
wiring. Our integrator's guide gives detailed instructions on
connecting the VP-3 sensor to non-Decagon loggers. Please visit

integrator's guide.
