Unidata Manual 6293 - Precision Water Level Instruments Issue 2.1

10

If you are using an existing instrument from one of the libraries, then double-
clicking on it from the Scheme Editor will allow you to check and adjust the
scaling details appropriate to the instrument(s) in use.

Model 6541-1 Metric Water Level with 500 mm Pulley

(used for general measurements)

More examples of setup for alternative pulley diameters are shown below.
When you have finished entering or adjusting the instrument details, click the
[Ok] button.
If you choose to log data via a channel other than the default (channel S0),
ensure the 6541 is connected to the correct terminal on the Field Termination
Strip if you are using one, or the correct pin in the INPUT SIGNALS connector
if you are connecting directly to a STARLOGGER. See your logger manual for
details.
The connections described in this manual assume:

•

In the case of STARLOGGER and PROLOGGER connection, you are
using the default serial channel, S0. Note that up to eight 6541 instruments
can be connected to a data logger. If you want to connect more than one
instrument nominate a different serial channel for each instrument.

•

In the case of the 6541-nn-C (Micrologger version) see Appendix A.

Model 6541-2 Imperial Water
Level with 12 Inch Pulley

(used for general measurements)

Note

that the data logged for

units of feet is in feet and tenths
of feet,

not

feet and inches. For

example 2.5 feet, is

not

2 feet 5

inches.
