FUNCTION
This instruction applies
a
3 VAC excitation
across Campbell Scientific's Model 207
Temperature
and RH Probe, makes
a
fast
single-ended measurement across
a
series
resistor on
the 150mV range, calculates the
result with
a
fifth order polynomial, and performs
the required temperature compensation before
outputting
the result in %
RH.
When measuring several probes,
allthe
RH
elements should
be
connected sequentially.
The temperature values used to correct
the
RH
measurements should also be stored
sequentially
to make use
of
the REP feature
in
Instruction
11.
NOTE:
The temperature
value used
in
compensating
the
RH
value
(Parameter
5) must be obtained (see
Instruction
1
1)
prior
to executing
Instruction
12.
The RH results are placed sequentially into the
input locations beginning with the
first
RH
value.
In
the
207 probe, the
RH
and temperature
elements use
a
common
excitation
line.
NEVER
EXCITE
THE2O7 PROBE WITH
DC
EXCITATION (this includes
ohm meters) as the
RH
chip will be damaged.
The maximum error from the polynomial used
for
calculating RH
is

THERMOCOUPLE TEMPERATURE.
SINGLE-ENDED
FUNCTION
This instruction uses the selected
calibration to calculate the thermocouple output
voltage at
the reference temperature, then
it
makes
a SINGLE-ENDED VOLTAGE
MEASUREMENT (Section 13.2) on the
thermocouple and adds
the measured voltage
to the
calculated reference voltage, then
converts the voltage to temperature in
oC.
Select the smallest
voltage range that will
accommodate the
temperatures
bein g
measured (Table 9-4).
