Enter Sensor Command: 0a1!
Response from sensor: 1!
If in doubt, type
?!
to verify the address change.
F)
While in Transparent Mode, the user may wish to confirm the parameter set.
Type
1XM!
The response should be:
Enter Sensor Command: 1XM!
Response from sensor: 1HJFGOKMLN
This means that a probe with an address of
1
is set for the default parameter set. See
Table 2 in Appendix A for definitions. In this example we are only interested in
HJF
which are parameters 1, 2 & 3 which correspond to soil moisture, temperature in Celsius
and soil electrical conductivity. Leave Transparent Mode. For this example we will
assume that the second probe has an address of
0
and has the same default parameter set.
G)
Connect both Hydra Probes to the terminal assembly.

Step 4 Setting the SDI-12 Channels
On the DOT logger, everything is recorded on a channel basis. Each parameter is recorded on its'
own channel. For every parameter that you wish to record, a channel will need to be assigned
and then configured for that use. In the SDI-12 window of DOTset, the SDI-12 channels can be
set up. In this example, we will need to set up 6 channels. Table C.1 shows the channel set up for
55
