CS105/CS105MD Barometric Pressure Sensor 1. General The CS105 analog barometer uses Vaisala’s Barocap® silicon capacitive pressure sensor. The Barocap sensor has been designed for accurate and stable measurement of barometric pressure. The CS105 outputs a linear 0 to 2.5 VDC signal that corresponds to 600 to 1060 mb. It can be operated in a powerup or continuous mode.
5 VDC. When the jumper is installed the CS105 is powered continuously. NOTE CS105s shipped from Campbell Scientific are configured for powerup mode (jumper open). NOTE CS105MDs shipped from Campbell Scientific are configured for continuous power mode (jumper closed).

4. Programming 4.1 CS105MD Programming the MetData1 station for the CS105MD is done through Campbell Scientific’s Short Cut program. Short Cut includes code in the .DLD file to correct for elevation. 4.2 CS105 Atmospheric pressure changes little with time. In most weather station applications measuring pressure once an hour is adequate.

Sea level correction is automatically coded into datalogger programs when using Short Cut. 7. Maintenance There are no user-serviceable parts on CS105. Vaisala recommends recalibrating the CS105 every year. Contact Campbell Scientific, Inc., phone (435) 753-2342, for an RMA number before returning the sensor for recalibration.

Appendix A. Daily Average If the CS105 will be measured every minute or faster, and a daily average is required, follow Example 5. In Example 5 the daily average, maximum, and minimum pressure is recorded at midnight. A constant is subtracted from the pressure before the average instruction is executed.
