Programming

The ProSample can be used in a variety of scenarios that range from simple to complex. This programming section
reviews the most common sampling scenarios. Please contact
ProSample in a sampling scenario that is not described in this manual.
NOTE: A complete review of the ProSample menu can be found in
ProSample units with an SDI-12 input (ProSample P-12 and ProSample PM-12) can be used in all of the scenarios
described below, while ProSample units without an SDI-12 input (ProSample P and ProSample PM) can be used for all
scenarios expect SDI-12 parameter-driven sampling.
NOTE: The settings modified in the section
and every program, so it is important these settings are carefully set before starting any program.

Sampling Scenario List and Descriptions

1. Stand-Alone
Sampling: The ProSample will collect samples at a user-defined interval. All ProSample models can
be used for this sampling scenario. See page 28.
2. Analog Input
Trigger: The ProSample will begin collecting samples when a 4-20 mA device (e.g. YSI Amazon
Bubbler or YSI IQSN sensor) meets user-defined sampling criteria. All ProSample models can be used for this
sampling scenario. See page 32.
3. Analog Input
Volume-Modulation: The ProSample will begin collecting samples when a 4-20 mA device (e.g.
YSI Amazon Bubbler or YSI IQSN sensor) meets user-defined sampling criteria. The amount of sample collected
depends upon the 4-20 mA signal. All ProSample models can be used for this sampling scenario. See page 38.
4. Digital Pulse Input
is sent to the ProSample from a digital device, such as a data logger or digital flow meter. The ProSample P-12
and ProSample PM-12 can be used for this sampling scenario. See page 42.
5. Digital Pulse Input
device, such as a data logger or digital flow meter. All ProSample models can be used for this sampling
scenario. See page 45.
6. SDI-12 Parameter-Driven
YSI EXO3 sonde) meet user-defined sampling criteria. The ProSample P-12 and ProSample PM-12 can be used
for this sampling scenario. See page 48.
Programming
Trigger: The ProSample will trigger a program to start collecting samples when a digital pulse
Event: The ProSample will take a sample each time it receives a digital pulse from a digital
Sampling: Samples will be collected when parameter(s) from an SDI-12 device (e.g.
