SDM-AO4 Four Channel Analog Output 1. Function The SDM-AO4 is designed to output four continuous voltages at levels set by a Campbell Scientific datalogger. 2. Specifications Power Requirements Operating voltage: 12 VDC Nominal (9.6 V - 16 V) Typical current drain: 10.5 mA Physical Specification Size: 6.1" X 2.7" X 1.1" Weight: 0.9 lbs. Analog Output Range: Resolution Maximum Current Accuracy Minimum load (for above accuracy) Output Resistance1 ±5000 mV 2.5 mV 1 mA ± (0.
SDM-AO4 Four Channel Analog Output 4. Physical Connections Figure 1 shows the front panel of the SDM-AO4. The terminal block on the left is used for connection to the datalogger and the terminal block on the right provides the continuous analog output. The two ground ports on the left block are identical and at the same potential. Table 1 describes the terminal block connections. Multiple SDM-AO4s may be used by connecting the datalogger side of one SDM-AO4 to the next.

SDM-AO4 Four Channel Analog Output The SDM-AO4 has sixteen possible addresses, as shown in Table 2. The address for an SDM-AO4 is hardware selectable using jumpers at locations J12 and J8, as shown in Figure 2. The jumper at location J12 represents the least significant digit (LSD), and the jumper at location J8 is the most significant digit (MSD). The digit zero (0) is nearest the edge of the board, and the digit three (3) is the innermost jumper on the board.

SDM-AO4 Four Channel Analog Output 6. Programming NOTE This section is for users who write their own datalogger programs. A datalogger program can be generated using Campbell Scientific’s SCWIN Short Cut Program Generator. You do not need to read this section to use Short Cut. The datalogger is programmed using either CRBasic or Edlog. Dataloggers that use CRBasic include our CR800, CR850, CR1000, CR3000, and CR5000. Dataloggers that use Edlog include our CR7, CR10X, CR10, CR23X, and 21X.
SDM-AO4 Four Channel Analog Output SDMAddress: The SDMAddress parameter defines the address of the SDMAO4 to which a voltage should be applied. Valid SDM addresses are 0 through 14. Address 15 is reserved for the SDMTrigger instruction. CRBasic dataloggers use base 10 when addressing SDM devices (see Table 2). 6.1.2 SDMSpeed Instruction The SDMSpeed instruction is used to change the bit period that the datalogger uses to clock the SDM data.
SDM-AO4 Four Channel Analog Output Equation for CR5000: bit_rate=INT(k*20)*Resolution Where: k= the value entered in BitPeriod Resolution=50 nsec. 6.2 Edlog The Edlog dataloggers are programmed with the SDM-AO4 Instruction 103 (See Table 4): SDM-AO4 (P103) 1: 1 Reps 2: 00 SDM Address 3: 0000 Loc [ _________ ] The number of repetitions, Parameter 01, specifies the total number of SDMAO4 output channels to be set.
SDM-AO4 Four Channel Analog Output 6.3.1 CR5000 Program Example Although this program is for a CR5000 datalogger, programming for other CRBasic dataloggers is similar.
SDM-AO4 Four Channel Analog Output 6.3.2 CR10X Program Example Although this program is for a CR10X, programming for other Edlog dataloggers is similar. ;{CR10X} *Table 1 Program 01: 1.0000 Execution Interval (seconds) ; Code for 03001 wind measurements, WS_ms & WindDir: 1: Pulse (P3) 1: 1 2: 1 3: 21 4: 1 5: 0.75 6: 0.
