CD100 Mountable Display with Keypad
3. Quickstart
1. If the CD100 is to be mounted into an enclosure bulkhead, refer to Section
6, Installation, for instructions.
2. Using an SC12 cable as shown in FIGURE 3-1, connect the 9-pin CS I/O
port of a CR1000 or other compatible datalogger to the 9-pin CS I/O port
on the back of the CD100.

Keyboard commands are summarized in Section 7, Operation, and in the
datalogger manual.
4. Overview
The CD100 is a panel-mountable display with keypad. It facilitates user input
and the display of data over a wide temperature range. The vacuum fluorescent
element gives the CD100 high contrast, so it is easy to read in daylight
conditions.
The CD100 is compatible with the dataloggers listed in Section 5,
Specifications. It will not operate properly with the CR850 datalogger or in
tandem with the CR1000KD on any datalogger.
When properly installed, the polyvinyl face and rear gasket make the CD100
weather resistant and prevent ingress of water and dust. The back of the
CD100 is not weather resistant. If used outdoors, or in a condensing
environment, the CD100 should be bulkhead mounted as recommended in
Section 6, Installation.
