技术说明
Compared to many such sensors, the CS120A design means that visibility is being measured in a relatively clean space because the position of the heads and body minimize disturbance of the airflow at the measurement volume.
The CS120A uses continuous high-speed sampling, which improves the accuracy of the measurements taken during mixed weather such as rain and hail, while providing reliable readings during more stable events such as fog and mist. High-speed sampling also allows the sensor to better respond to suddenly changing conditions.
The CS120A has several design features that keep its optics clean. Downward-facing optics minimize dirt and snow buildup. Low-powered heaters prevent the formation of dew, and a higher-powered heater prevents the formation of ice.
The sensor is very power efficient, drawing just 3 W during normal operation including the dew heaters; power can be reduced further by reducing the sample rate and manual control of the heaters.
Two configurable alarm outputs are provided and, via relays, these can drive external warning systems such as lights and foghorns. They can also be used to switch the intensity of wind turbine warning lights depending upon current visibility levels.

CS125 and CS120A OS v.17 (555 KB) 08-06-2023
Campbell Scientific has introduced a new operating system, OS 17, for the CS120A visibility sensor and CS125 present weather sensor. It is backwards compatible and is easily installed on all CS120A and CS125 sensors (but not older CS120 sensors). OS 17 is available free of charge and can be downloaded here or supplied by email on request.
Upgrade to OS 17 is recommended.

CS120A: 1

不是每一种传感器都有不同的线缆尾端选项。通过查找传感器产品页面的订购栏 (Ordering tab) 中的两个位置，可以检查某种特定传感器的可用的线缆尾端选项：
- 产品型号
- 线缆尾端选项列表
如果传感器以 –ET, –ETM, –LC, –LQ, 或 –QD 等版本的型号供应，那么线缆尾端选项已经反映在该传感器的产品型号中。例如，034B 以 034B-ET, 034B-ETM, 034B-LC, 034B-LQ, 和 034B-QD 等型号供应。
所有其它的线缆尾端选项，如果可用，会列在该传感器产品页面的订购栏 (Ordering tab) 中的线缆尾端选项 (“Cable Termination Options) 区域。例如，034B-L 风速风向传感器具有 –CWS, –PT, 和 –PW 等线缆尾端选项，显示在 034B-L 产品页面的 订购栏 (Ordering tab) 位置。
注： 当更新的产品添加到我们的库存中时，一般来说，我们会在单个传感器的产品型号下面列出多种线缆尾端选项，而不是创建多个产品型号。例如，HC2S3-L 具有 –C 线缆尾端选项用于连接到 CS110，而我们并没有使用 HC2S3-LC 产品型号。
