Data Delivery


[Note 1: Measurand DL1 (formerly DC) logger is no longer available, but will continue to be supported for existing installations.

Note 2: some configurations may require Measurand’s new AIA-ready SAAFs.]


Simplest (direct)

Connect SAAF to PC USB port using Measurand SAAUSB connection kit (includes power supply) and acquire/store/visualize/export ASCII or Matlab XYZ data using SAARecorder software. Data are viewable in SAA3D viewer software.


Most common wireless

Connect SAAF(s) to Campell Scientific CR1000 or CR800 data logger using Measurand SAA232 adaptor(s) (controls power, provides surge protection, converts protocol). Collect raw data wirelessly using cellnet modem and Loggernet software. Convert raw data to ASCII or Matlab XYZ data using Measurand SAACR_raw2data software. This entire process can be set to run autonomously. This process can be used with or without Measurand web delivery. Data are viewable in SAA3D viewer software.


Simplest logger

As above in “Most common wireless” but data are collected manually from Campbell logger.


Wireless serial modem

Measurand’s Wireless serial modem (WSM), connected to an SAAF through Measurand’s SAA232 adaptor, enables communication with a PC fitted with a second WSM, as if connected through a serial cable, but wirelessly, at ranges of at least several km (1 km in EU with WSMEU).


Land line

For those rare situations where a telephone land line is used, the Campbell logger described in “Most common wireless” would use a landline modem instead of a wireless cellnet modem.


SAAR

Resarch SAAs (“SAAR”) have a special interface for acquiring data in a PC at the highest possible rate.
