Short Cut is an easy way to program your datalogger to measure the 107 probe and assign datalogger wiring terminals. Short Cut is available as a download on www.campbellsci.com. It is included in installations of LoggerNet, PC200W, PC400, or RTDAQ.

Model 107 Temperature Probe In the search box under the Available Sensors and Devices heading, type in 107 or find the 107 in the Sensors | Temperature folder. Double-click the 107 Temperature Probe. Data defaults to degree Celsius. This can be changed by clicking the Deg C box and selecting Deg F, for degrees Fahrenheit, or K for Kelvin.
Overview The 107 is a rugged probe that accurately measures air, soil, or water temperature in a variety of applications. The sensor consists of a thermistor encapsulated in an epoxy-filled aluminum housing. This design allows the probe to be buried or submerged in water to 15 m (50 ft) or 21 psi.
Model 107 Temperature Probe mount the 107 and limit solar radiation loading. See Section 6, Specifications , for a complete list of compatible dataloggers. (p. 4) Specifications Features Measures air, soil, or water temperature • Compatible with AM16/32-series multiplexers •...
A complete program example can be found in Appendix B, Example Programs (p. B-1) If the 107 probe is to be used with long cable lengths or in electrically noisy environments, consider employing the measurement programming techniques outlined in Section 8.3, Electrically Noisy Environments , and Section 8.4,...
7.2.1 Therm107() Instruction The Therm107() measurement instruction programs CRBasic dataloggers to measure the 107 probe. It applies a precise excitation voltage, makes a half- bridge resistance measurement, and converts the result to temperature using the Steinhart-Hart equation. See Section 8.2, Measurement and Output Linearization , for more information.

Secure the cable to the tripod or tower using cable ties. Water Temperature Installation 107 probes can be submerged to 15 m (50 ft) or 21 psi. The 107 is not weighted, so a weighting system should be added, or the probe secured to a submerged object such as a piling.
The 60 Hz and 50 Hz integration options include a 3 ms settling time; longer settling times can be entered into the Settling Time parameter. Campbell Scientific suggests doubling the settling time every 50 ft. The following code snip examples increase settling time by 20000 µs by placing 20000 as the...
If needed, an estimate of the interchangeability error for 0 to 50 °C, that can be used as the Offset parameter of the Therm107() instruction, can be determined with a 1-point or 2-point calibration. Calibration of the 107 probe is not...
