FUNCTION
This
instruction
applies a 3 VAC
excitation
across
Campbell Scientific's Model
207
Temperature
and RH Probe, makes
a fast
single-ended
measurement across
a series
resistor
on
the 150mV range,
calculates the
result with
a
fifth
order
polynomial,
and
performs
the
required temperature
compensation
before
outputting
the result
in %
RH.
When
measuring several
probes,
allthe RH
elements should
be
connected sequentially.
The
temperature
values used
to correct the RH
measurements
should also be
stored
sequentially
to make
use of the REP feature in
Instruction
11.
NOTE: The
temperature value
used
in
compensating
the
RH value
(Parameter
5)
must
be
obtained
(see
Instruction 1
1)
prior
to executing
Instruction
12.
The
RH results
are
placed
sequentially
into
the
input
locations
beginning with
the first RH value.
In the 207
probe,
the
RH
and
temperature
elements use
a common excitation
line. NEVER
EXCITE
THE2O7 PROBE WITH
DC
EXCITATION
(this
includes ohm
meters) as
the
RH
chip will be damaged.
The
maximum
error from the
polynomial
used
for
calculating RH
is

THERMOCOUPLE
TEMPERATURE.
SINGLE-ENDED
FUNCTION
This
instruction uses the selected
calibration to calculate the thermocouple
output
voltage at the reference
temperature, then it
makes a SINGLE-ENDED VOLTAGE
MEASUREMENT
(Section
13.2)
on the
thermocouple
and adds the measured
voltage
to the calculated reference voltage,
then
converts the voltage to temperature in
oC.
Select the
smallest voltage range that will
accommodate the
temperatures bein
g
measured
(Table
9-4).
