The CR6-series measurement and control datalogger is a powerful core component for your data-acquisition system. We combined the best features of all our dataloggers and added faster communications, low power requirements, built in USB, compact size, and improved analog input accuracy and resolution.
The CR6 series also introduces our new universal (U) terminal—an ingenious way for allowing virtually any sensor (analog, digital, or smart) to be connected to any U terminal. This is also our first multipurpose datalogger capable of doing static vibrating-wire measurements.
Benefits and Features
l Powerfully versatile, multi-tool of data acquisition
l U terminals configurable to what you want them to be: analog or digital, input, or output
l Static vibrating wire measurements using our patented spectral analysis
l Surge ESD and over-voltage protection on all terminals
l Flexible power input from solar panel, dc power supply, 12 V battery, USB
l Onboard communication options include Ethernet, Wi-Fi, and spread spectrum radios
l CR6-WIFI ideal for short-range, wireless IP communication
l CR6-RF407/412/422/427 ideal for low power medium range license-free radio communication
l CR6-RF451 ideal for long-range, license-free radio communication
l Wiring made easy through removable terminal block
l One non-isolated current input channels included for directly connecting sensors with 0-to-20 mA or 4-to-20 mA current outputsa
l MicroSD card drive for extended memory requirements
l Serial sensors support with RS-232 and RS-485 native
l CPI for hosting Campbell high speed sensors and distributed modules (CDM)
l Programmable with CRBasic or SCWin program generator, completely PakBus compatible
