. The program should
take a few seconds to compile and load into the data logger. Now the data logger is ready to collect
data. Data will be written to the memory card directly for easy retrieval.
5.1.3 Connect all the sensors
Before connecting all the sensors, turn off the data logger by disconnecting it from the battery. Wiring
diagrams for each sensor are available with the program (see Section 5.6 or Appendix A.7 for the
standard TEAM Climate Station wiring diagram). There are also a number of videos on the TEAM
portal in the Climate Protocol section that describe how to connect each sensor to the data logger
(http://www.teamnetwork.org/en/protocols/threat/climate).

Use the small screwdriver that comes
with the data logger to securely attach the cables to the terminals by loosening the screw in each
terminal, inserting the cable in the slot above, and then tightening the screw so the cable makes good
contact with the terminal. The temperature/RH and solar radiation sensors should be connected to
differential analog terminals (e.g. 1H/1L), while the precipitation sensor is connected to a pulse
terminal (e.g. P1). The ground cables can all be connected to the same terminal for a given sensor.
Additionally, the Temperature/RH sensor requires power from the data logger (12V terminal).
