Wire the sensors and devices as shown in the wiring diagrams in step 7.
Check the output of the sensor in the

datalogger support software

(p. 32)

data display to make sure it is making reasonable measurements.

5. Overview

The CDM-A100 expands the number of analog measurement channels and
increases the measurement-speed potential in a datalogger system. CDMs
operate through a datalogger program and communicate using the CAN
peripheral interface (

(p. 32)

). A single datalogger can operate up to 50

CDMs.

5.1 Wiring Panel – Overview

To avoid damage to sensors and devices, ensure that each
removable wiring-terminal strip is connected to the CDM-
A108 and CDM-A116 in the proper location before applying
power. Each strip is keyed identically.

CAUTION
