3. Initial inspection
l
Upon receipt of the sensor, inspect the packaging and contents for damage. File damage
claims with the shipping company.
l
The model number, cable length, and cable resistance (CS240 only) are printed on a label
at the connection end of the cable. Check this information against the shipping documents
to ensure the expected product and cable length were received.
4. QuickStart
The information provided in this section is for the CS240.
A video that describes data logger programming using Short Cut is available at:
www.campbellsci.com/videos/cr1000x-data logger-getting-started-program-part-3
. Short Cut is
an easy way to program your data logger to measure the sensor and assign data logger wiring
terminals. Short Cut is available as a download on
. It is included in
installations of LoggerNet, RTDAQ, PC400, or PC200W.
The following procedure also shows using Short Cut to program the CS240 and CS240DM.
1. Open Short Cut and click Create New Program.
2. Double-click the data logger model.
3. In the Available Sensors and Devices box, type CS240. You can also locate the sensor in the
Sensors > Temperature folder. Double click the sensor model. The surface temperature
defaults to degree C. This can be changed by clicking the Temperature box and selecting
one of the other options. If using the 2-wire configuration, type the Cable Resistance. This
value is unique for each CS240 and CS240DM, and is printed on the heat shrink label
attached to the sensor cable.
