5. Overview 
The CS475, CS476, and CS477 emit short microwave pulses and measure the 
elapsed time between the emission and return of the pulses. The elapsed time 
measurement is used to calculate the distance between the sensor face and the target 
(for example, water, grain, slurry). The distance value can be used to determine 
depth. 
These radar sensors output a digital SDI-12 signal to indicate distance and stage. 
This output is acceptable for recording devices with SDI-12 capability including 
Campbell Scientific dataloggers.
