2.
If the sensor is auto-ID, the channel number and sensor
type automatically display on the Main Screen. Go to
3.
Select the Data Collection Mode on page 9.
or
If the sensor is not auto-ID, follow the steps below to tell
the CBL 2™ that the sensor is connected.
4.
On the DataMate Main Screen, press À SETUP.
5.
Press † as needed to move the cursor to the channel to
which the sensor is connected. Press Í. A list of
sensors appears.
5.
If the sensor you want is not on the list, press ¬ MORE to see more choices.
(The list covers several screens.)
6.
Press the number beside a sensor to choose that sensor.
Note: Some sensors, such as accelerometer or pressure, display another screen and require
you to select a particular sensor, preferred unit of measure, or calibration.
7.
When you finish choosing sensors, press À OK to return to the Main Screen.
Calibrate a Sensor (optional)
When a sensor is selected, DataMate automatically loads the default calibration
settings. Although it is not necessary, if you choose to calibrate a sensor, use the
following procedure.
There are two ways to calibrate a sensor. The first way is to monitor the voltage
until it is stable and enter that value; the second way is to manually enter the
values. You will need to consult the sensor literature for proper calibration
procedures. The examples below show calibration for the pH sensor.
To calibrate the pH sensor by monitoring the voltage, you will need two solutions
with known pH values; for example, buffer solutions with values of 4 and 10.
Follow these steps:
1.
On the Main Screen, press À.
