At some point, you may have watched the real-time wind readings from your data logger and seen the wind speed bouncing back and forth. Then, you probably wondered if it really was that gusty outside. In many cases, what you are seeing is the resolution... 阅读更多作者: Matt Perry | 最后更新: 01/17/2018 | 评论: 0
During 2017, I was asked several times for a data logger program to retrieve data from Kipp & Zonen’s new RaZON+, a compact-sized dual-axis sun tracker with integrated GPS, smart pyrheliometer, and shaded smart pyranometer. The RaZON+ touts a higher accuracy approach to obtaining solar... 阅读更多作者: Michelle Welch | 最后更新: 01/04/2018 | 评论: 2

Just recently, the KRACK (Key Reinstallation AttaCK) Wi-Fi vulnerability was publicized. You might be wondering what it is and how it affects the security of your Campbell Scientific devices and data. The KRACK vulnerability exists in the WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access II) security standard used on... 阅读更多作者: Timothy Jeppsen | 最后更新: 11/29/2017 | 评论: 0
What do expansion peripherals do, and how is integrating them helpful? Expansion peripherals have two purposes: to expand the capabilities of the data logger, both in channel count and functionality, and to improve measurement quality. What if we could provide both and make it easier... 阅读更多作者: Janet Albers | 最后更新: 10/25/2017 | 评论: 2
Have you ever noticed a message saying that your CRBasic program compiled in PipelineMode or SequentialMode? What does it mean? And, when does it matter? In this article, we’ll look at these two modes. Sequential Mode Let’s start with the more straightforward mode: SequentialMode. The CRBasic Editor... 阅读更多作者: Timothy Jeppsen | 最后更新: 10/11/2017 | 评论: 8
As soon as people learned that we were replacing the CR1000 datalogger with the CR1000X datalogger, they asked us these questions: “Can I load a program I wrote for my CR1000 into a CR1000X?” and “Will the CR1000X fit in the same space as my... 阅读更多作者: Garrett Wheeler | 最后更新: 09/27/2017 | 评论: 0
We realize that designing a custom, high-quality automated weather station to fit your needs can be challenging, as there are many considerations to keep in mind. To help you with this task, we have recently created three new resources that I’ll introduce you to in... 阅读更多作者: Chod Stephens | 最后更新: 09/13/2017 | 评论: 4
To help environmental researchers who measure solar radiation improve their measurements and simplify their lives, Campbell Scientific and Apogee Instruments teamed up to develop a new sensor. This new sensor combines features from higher-end blackbody thermopile pyranometers and lower-end silicon photocell pyranometers. The CS320 Digital Thermopile... 阅读更多作者: Dana Worley | 最后更新: 08/30/2017 | 评论: 3
If you have read recent revision history for the Device Configuration Utility (also known as DevConfig), you may have run across the following note: “New USB drivers (RNDIS) were added for [supported] datalogger.” What's that all about? you may have wondered. Sounds boring, eh? We think it... 阅读更多作者: Timothy Jeppsen | 最后更新: 08/02/2017 | 评论: 3
It should come as no surprise that the CR1000 datalogger (introduced in 2004) has been an incredibly successful data logger. With nearly 100,000 deployed, this data logger has been installed on every continent on the earth. Using the design success of the CR1000, Campbell Scientific... 阅读更多作者: Dana Worley | 最后更新: 07/19/2017 | 评论: 0
In an April 2016 blog article (“Handling New Device Drivers in a Changing Windows World”), I wrote that Campbell Scientific was ending Windows XP support for our hardware device drivers. In that article, I also mentioned that Windows XP support might end for other products... 阅读更多作者: Janet Albers | 最后更新: 06/28/2017 | 评论: 4
Security codes are the oldest method of securing a data logger. They can effectively prevent innocent tinkering and discourage wannabe hackers—actions that could potentially wreak havoc on the integrity of your data. In this article, I’ll discuss the different security codes and how to use... 阅读更多作者: Alan Hinckley | 最后更新: 06/14/2017 | 评论: 13
If you are considering using pyranometers in your measurement application, there are many things you should know about them and how they work. Having this information in hand will help ensure you select the type of pyranometer most suitable for the data you need for... 阅读更多作者: Bruce Smith | 最后更新: 06/08/2017 | 评论: 3
Have you ever heard someone mention "ET" and wondered what it meant? Assuming the person wasn’t talking about extra-terrestrials or Entertainment Tonight, the conversation was probably about evapotranspiration. Evapotranspiration (or "ET") is the water lost through plant transpiration and soil and plant evaporation. The images... 阅读更多作者: Gary Roberts | 最后更新: 05/31/2017 | 评论: 2
Maybe you’re like me when it comes to skipped scans. I have always disliked seeing skipped scans in my data loggers. I have been trained to watch out for them and do my best to write my CRBasic programs in a way that makes them... 阅读更多作者: Bart Nef | 最后更新: 05/17/2017 | 评论: 8
Although air temperature and relative humidity (RH) sensors provide the benefit of an economical means to collect measurement data for two parameters, there are some issues related to these sensors that you should be aware of. In this article, I’ll provide some background on air... 阅读更多作者: Janet Albers | 最后更新: 05/04/2017 | 评论: 0
Are you wondering what size battery and solar panel you need to run all of the devices in your data acquisition system? How will you know if your power supply can keep pace with your needs? To get these answers, you will need to estimate the... 阅读更多作者: Carolyn Ivans | 最后更新: 04/13/2017 | 评论: 0
