Use the Help in conjunction with the steps outlined below:
Step 1: Open a new or existing file.
The first time Short Cut is run, a prompt asks for a choice of
“AC Noise Rejection.” If the CR1000 will be used in the United
States, choose “60 Hz”; many other countries use “50 Hz” power
mains systems. A second prompt asks for a choice of “Sensor
Support.” Choose “Campbell Scientific, Inc.”
On the “1. New/Open” page, click [New Program]. Use the drop-down list
box that appears to select CR1000. Click [OK]. Enter a 1 second Scan
Interval and click [OK]. Click on [Next>] to progress to “2. Sensors” page.
Step 2: Select sensors to be measured.
Sensors page is divided into two sections: Available Sensors and Selected
table, as shown in FIGURE 2.2-4. Sensors desired are chosen from the
available se
nsors tree.
On the Available Sensors tree, open the Sensors folder to show several sub-
folders. Each sub-folder includes a class of sensors. Open the Temperature
sub-folder to display available temperature sensors.
Double click on the Wiring Panel Temperature sensor to add it to the
selected sensors table. Click OK on the next screen to accept the PTemp_C
label.
Double click on the Type T Thermocouple. Change the number of sensors to
add to “1” and click OK. On the next screen, make sure Ptemp_C is selected
for the Reference Temperature Measurement, and click OK to accept the
Temp_C label.
