B.2.4 CR10X Datalogger Example

1. Connect a single sensor to the datalogger as follows:

• White to Control Port C1

• Black, Orange, Clear to G

• Red to 12V

2. Download a datalogger program that contains the SDI-12 Recorder (P105)

instruction with valid entries for each parameter. Make sure that
parameter 3 of the P105 instruction matches the control port number where
the green wire is connected.

3. In the LoggerNet Connect screen navigate to the Datalogger menu and

The sensor will respond with the current SDI-12 address.

8. To change the SDI-12 address, enter the command aAb!; where a is the

current address from the above step and b is the new address. The sensor
will change its address and the datalogger will exit the SDI-12 Transparent
Mode.
