Section 8. Operation
385
store measurements from up to 14 differential or 28 single-ended channels
configured from H/L terminals at the minimum scan interval of 10 ms (100 Hz)
using fast-measurement-programming techniques as discussed in Measurement:
Fast Analog Voltage
(p. 248).
The maximum conversion rate is 2000 per second (2
kHz) for measurements made on a one single-ended channel.
Parameters that Control Measurement Sequence and
Timing
CRBasic Instruction Parameter Action
MeasOfs
Correct ground offset on single-ended
measurements.
SettlingTime Sensor input settling time.
Integ Duration of input signal integration.
RevDiff
Reverse high and low differential
inputs.
RevEx Reverse polarity of excitation voltage.
Measurement Integration
Integrating the signal removes noise that creates error in the measurement. Slow
integration removes more noise than fast integration. Integration time can be
modified to reject 50 Hz and 60 Hz mains-power line noise.
Fast integration may be preferred at times to,
•
minimize time skew between successive measurements.
•
maximize throughput rate.
•
maximize life of the CR3000 power supply.
•
minimize polarization of polar sensors such as those for measuring
conductivity, soil moisture, or leaf wetness. Polarization may cause
measurement errors or sensor degradation.
improve accuracy of an LVDT measurement. The induced voltage in an LVDT
decays with time as current in the primary coil shifts from the inductor to the
series resistance; a long integration time may result in most of signal decaying
before the measurement is complete.
