CR800 and CR850 Overview
OV1.1.2 Signal Grounds (
)
Signal Grounds (
) should be used as the reference for Single-ended Analog
inputs, Pulse inputs, Excitation returns, and sensor shield wires. Signal returns
for the Pulse inputs should use the
terminals located next to the Pulse
inputs.
OV1.1.3 Power Grounds (G)
Power Grounds (G) should be used as the returns for the 5V, SW12, 12V, and
C1-C8 outputs. Use of the G grounds for these outputs with potentially large
currents will minimize current flow through the analog section, which can
cause Single-ended voltage measurement errors.
OV1.1.4 Ground Lug (
)
The large ground lug is used to tie the ground potential of the datalogger to
earth ground. A conductive connection, using a heavy gage wire, is necessary
to ensure equivalent ground potentials. This path to ground is also used to
shunt incoming electrical transients to ground; these transients may be induced
on the shield wire of the connected sensor leads.
OV1.1.5 Power In (G and 12V)
The G and 12V terminals on the Power In connector plug are for connecting
power from an external battery to the CR800. These are the only terminals that
can be used to input battery power; the other 12V and SW-12V terminals are
output only.
OV1.1.6 Switched 12 Volts (SW-12)
The SW-12 terminals provide an unregulated 12 volts that can be switched on
and off under program control.
OV1.1.7 Switched Voltage Excitation (EX E1-2)
Two switched excitation channels provide precision programmable voltages
within the ±2.5 Volt range for bridge measurements. Each channel will source
up to 25 mA at voltages up to ±2.5 V.
OV1.1.8 Digital I/O (C1-4)
There are 4 digital Input/Output channels (0 V low, 5 V high) for frequency
measurement, pulse counting, digital control, and triggering. In addition to the
individual channel digital I/O functions, there are several groups of channels
that can be used for other functions.
The Synchronous Device for Measurement (SDM) connections C1, C2, and C3
along with the 12 volt and ground terminals are used to connect SDM sensors
and peripherals.
The COM groupings can be used for serial I/O communication and Intelligent
Sensor input.
