Section 1. SM4M / SM16M Storage
Module Overview
Campbell Scientific’s SM4M and SM16M Storage Modules expand on-site data storage
for users of Campbell Scientific dataloggers. They also provide the user with a convenient
method of transporting data from the field back to the office. The SM4M and SM16M are
compatible with the CR500/510, CR10/10X, 21X, CR23X and CR7 dataloggers as well as
the DSP4 Heads Up Display.
This manual contains two broad divisions. The Overview surveys the Storage Modules
and their function. It also explains how to quickly begin using a Storage Module for
straightforward data storage operations. The remainder of the manual is a technical
reference which describes in detail such operations as: storing data from current
dataloggers, storing data from older dataloggers, data retrieval, and datalogger program
storage and retrieval.
The Overview should be read by all users, as should Section 5 (Data Retrieval). Users
with the CR500/510, CR10/10X, CR23X or with the 21X or CR7 with recent operating
systems (i.e., current dataloggers) should read Section 2, while users of Campbell
Scientific’s older dataloggers should read Section 3. Section 6 (Storing and Retrieving
Datalogger Programs) and Appendix B (Telecommunication Commands) may be used as
needed.
SMS (Storage Module Software) simplifies communication procedures between
dataloggers and Storage Modules. SMS is part of Campbell Scientific’s PC208W
Windows-based datalogger support software. Contact Campbell Scientific for further
information.
