2.7  SENSOR VERIFICATION USING

THE CR10KD KEYBOARD DISPLAY

The following steps allow verification of the
sensor measurements performed every 10
seconds.

Connect the CR10KD Keyboard Display to the
serial I/O connector in the crossarm (refer to
Figure 2.6-4) using the Model SC12 cable.
Upon connection, the display activates, showing
meaningless numbers.  Enter 

*

0 and the display

should show LOG1.  The sensor measurements
are stored in the CR10's Input Locations,
accessed through the 

*

6 Mode; refer to the

keyboard entry column in Table 2.7-1.  If you
get lost or make a mistake, start over by
entering 

*

6.  Once you are in 

*

6 the A key may

be used to advance through the locations and
the B key may be used to backup through the
locations.

*

NOTE:

  Due to reverse polarity protection

diodes in the circuit, the battery voltage
measurement is approximately .7 volts
lower than the actual battery voltage.
Minimum operating voltage for the CR10 is
9.6 V.

**

WARNING:

  Readings above 200 indicate

high humidity inside the canister.  The
canister must be opened and dried, and the
desiccant reactivated by heating at 250

o

 for

12 hours.

1. Typical values should be between 300

(overcast) and 1000 (bright sunshine).

2. To check the wind vane, point it to the east

and compare new reading to 90

o

.

***

NOTE:

  Soil temperature readings are

made only if the CR10 User Flag #1 is set
high.  Refer to Section 2.9 for details.

2.8  SETTING THE CLOCK WITH THE

CR10KD KEYBOARD DISPLAY

To set the year, day of year, and time, enter 

*

5

and advance the display to the appropriate
window (refer to Table 2.8).  Key in the desired
value and enter it by pressing the A key.  When
a new value for hours and minutes is entered,
the seconds are set to zero and current time is
again displayed.  Figure 2.8 shows a day of year
calendar.
