Page 35: Controlling Power To The Ls300G-Eu
Campbell Scientific, Inc. Therefore, it may be necessary to use the datalogger to control power to the LS300G-EU. The following program examples show how to control power to the LS300G-EU using the switched 12V terminal on the datalogger. - Page 36 Appendix A. Controlling Power to the LS300G-EU The next program, also created by Short Cut, performs the same function as the first program (turn on SW12 for 15 minutes every 60 minutes between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m.) without using the TimeIsBetween instruction. This method should be used for CR1000, CR300 and CR800 operating systems prior to version 28.
