CS100 Barometric Pressure Sensor
6
In Program Example 2, the CR10X datalogger (Edlog datalogger) turns on
the CS100 one minute before the top of the hour using a control port. On the
hour the datalogger measures the CS100, and then it turns the CS100 off.
5.1 Conversion Factors
In the example programs, the pressure is reported in millibars (mb). To
report pressure in different units, multiply the measured pressure by the
appropriate conversion factor using the P37 (Z=X*F) instruction for CR500,
CR510, CR10(X), CR23X, 21X, and CR7, or by adding an expression for
CR200, C800, CR850, CR1000, CR3000, CR5000, and CR9000(X)
dataloggers. See Table 2 below for conversion factors.

5.2 Multipliers and Offsets for Different Measurement Range
Options
For CS100 barometric pressure transducers with measurement range options
other than the standard 600 to 1100 mb option, please refer to the table
below for proper multipliers and offsets.
