CS100 Barometric Pressure Sensor Under the Available Sensors and Devices list, select Sensors | Meteorological | Barometric Pressure folder. Select CS100 Barometric Pressure Sensor. Click to move the selection to the Selected device window. Enter the Sea Level Elevation Correction. If not using the standard range of 600 - 100 mb, select another Barometer Pressure Range.
500 to 1100 millibar and 800 to 1100 millibar. Please contact Campbell Scientific to order these special versions. The CS100 is supplied in the triggered mode that allows the datalogger to switch 12 Vdc power to the barometer before the measurement. The datalogger then powers down the barometer after the measurements to conserve power.

The CS100 is typically mounted in a Campbell Scientific enclosure next to the datalogger. Campbell Scientific also offers the ENC100 for situations where it is desirable to house the CS100 in its own enclosure. The ENC100 is a 6.7-inch x 5.5-inch x 3.7-inch enclosure that includes a compression fitting for cable...

CS100 Barometric Pressure Sensor 7.4.1 CRBasic Instructions The VoltSE() measurement instruction typically programs the datalogger to measure the CS100. VoltSE( Dest, Reps, Range, SEChan, MeasOff, SettlingTime, Integration, Multiplier, Offset ) The appropriate multiplier and offset depends on the measurement range.
(VoltDiff()) to measure the CS100. Output Resolution When storing the values from the CS100 to a data table or to a datalogger’s final storage location, care must be taken to choose suitable scaling of the reading, or to store the value with adequate resolution to avoid losing useful resolution of the pressure measurement.
The external case can be cleaned with a damp, lint-free cloth and a mild detergent solution. You can purchase a replacement five terminal connector (pn 16004) from Campbell Scientific. The CS100 is sensitive to static when the backplate is CAUTION removed. To avoid damage, take adequate anti-static measures when handling.
Appendix A. Importing Short Cut Code Into CRBasic Editor This tutorial shows: How to import a Short Cut program into a program editor for • additional refinement • How to import a wiring diagram from Short Cut into the comments of a custom program Short Cut creates files, which can be imported into CRBasic Editor.
CR1000 measures the CS100 once an hour. To do this, the CR1000 uses a control port to turn on the CS100 one minute before the top of the hour. On the hour, the datalogger measures the CS100, and then turns the CS100 off.
CS100_temp. One minute before the hour, the CS100 turns on and starts to make the correct pressure measurements. At the top of the hour, the correct value is stored into the pressure variable, and the sensor is turned off immediately.
