Now that your EXO PAR system is installed, it’s time to connect your EXO PAR Sonde to either your PC running KOR or
your EXO handheld system. For PC applications, you can use the Bluetooth functionality of the EXO to connect with
KOR. For EXO handheld applications, you will need to connect an EXO field cable between the EXO communications
bulkhead connector and the EXO handheld communications bulkhead connector. The EXO field cable comes in
differing lengths depending on your needs, its part number is; 599040-xx (the –xx signifies the cable length; ex -2
equals 2 meters) Cable lengths start at 2 meters.
If the EXO PAR sonde is connecting to a data logger, you can use the EXO flying lead cable, part number 599008-xx
(again the –xx signifies the cable length) flying lead cables start at 10 meters. You will also need the EXO DCP adapter
to connect to a data logger, part number 599820.
Each Li-Cor PAR sensor is supplied with a Certificate of Calibration, shown below (figure 9). The calibration certificate
contains the multipliers for the sensor. YSI uses the in-water multiplier for our EXO adapter, providing PAR engineering
units out as data. In the following sections, we will review where and how to end this multiplier into either KOR EXO
software or the EXO handheld display.
