CR10X-2M Measurement and Control Datalogger with 2 M Additional Memory and Wiring Panel
Services Available
Repair No
Calibration Yes

Overview

The CR10X-2M stored up to 1,000,000 data points.

The CR10X-2M provided sensor measurement, timekeeping, data reduction, data/program storage and control functions. Data and programs were stored either in a nonvolatile Flash memory or RAM. A lithium battery backed up the RAM and real-time clock. The CR10X-2M also suspended execution when primary power (BPALK, PS100) dropped below 9.6 V, reducing the possibility of inaccurate measurements.

Detailed Description

The CR10X-2M stored up to 1,000,000 data points. The data logger consisted of a CR10XM-2M Measurement and Control Module and black CR10X Wiring Panel.

The CR10X-2M provided sensor measurement, timekeeping, data reduction, data/program storage and control functions.  Data and programs were stored either in a nonvolatile Flash memory or RAM. A lithium battery backed up the RAM and real-time clock. The CR10X-2M also suspended execution when primary power (BPALK, PS100) dropped below 9.6 V, reducing the possibility of inaccurate measurements.

The CR10X-2M was removed from our pricing system on 19 April 2007.

Frequently Asked Questions

Number of FAQs related to CR10X-2M: 11

Expand AllCollapse All

  1. After testing a CR10X in the office, how can the bogus office data be cleared out so that the data logger is ready to be deployed in the field?

    Using the CR10KD, key in *A28A.

  2. If a brand-new CR10X datalogger has a red and blue wire on it, can this be taken off?

    The red and blue wire in differential channel 5 is a thermocouple. We ship the data logger with this thermocouple so that users can work through sample program #2 in the "CR10X Measurement and Control Module Overview" section of the CR10X manual. Feel free to remove this temperature measurement sensor if it is not needed.

  3. How many AM16/32B multiplexers can be connected to a data logger at the same time?

    A practical maximum is to connect one multiplexer per every two control terminals on the data logger. Control terminals can be shared between multiplexers to increase the number of connected multiplexers. Sharing terminals, however, requires more complex wiring and programming. Users who would like to connect more than one multiplexer per every two control terminals are advised to contact a sales or support engineer at Campbell Scientific for assistance.

  4. Is the observational data maintained in a CR10X if ac power is lost when data is written in the final storage area? Can the data of the final storage area be read by an internal program when ac power is restored?

    The CR10X has battery-backup RAM and clock. In other words, the program, final storage data, or clock settings are not lost if ac power is lost. Data is sent to final storage by an internal program. Data can be sent by an internal program from final storage to a storage module, computer, or printer using Instruction 96 Active Serial Data Output.

  5. Is there a minimum 12-channel data logger available that can send data to an Internet server by GPRS?

    The CR1000 can send data to the Internet using GPRS.

  6. Is a special PROM needed for a CR10X?

    The CR10X uses downloadable operating systems instead of PROMs and includes more instruction in the standard operating system. For a list of instructions included in the standard operating system, refer to the prompt sheet or CR10X manual.

  7. Can the CR10X communicate piezometer data easily with a Wonderware SCADA system for data display?

    If the CR10X has Modbus OS, Wonderware can be used to display the data. Without the Modbus OS, LoggerNet software would be needed to collect the data and then the PC-OPC Sever software would be used to display the data.

  8. Is there an existing port on the CR10X that can house a RS-232 one-wire interface device?

    Instruction 15, Control Port Serial I/O, does allow the use of one control port for hardware flow control (RTS/DTR) or (TXD/RXD). The first control port is the (RTS/DTR) line. Baud rate is limited to 300 or 1200. 

  9. Can the CR10X communicate easily with a Wonderware SCADA system for data display?

    Yes. The data can be obtained directly from the CR10X using the Modbus protocol. The data logger must have a Modbus operating system installed. The Modbus operating system can be purchased initially with the data logger, or contact Campbell Scientific for a Modbus OS to retrofit the CR10X. Refer to the 13619 CR10X Modbus Operating System on CD page.

    An alternate method of obtaining the data is using OPC. Our LoggerNet and PC-OPC software are needed. The version of Wonderware must also work with OPC.

  10. Can the CR10X send data out the serial port to be parsed by another instrument? If so, is this automatic, programmed, or a response to a command from another instrument?

    Data can be sent out the CS/IO port automatically using Instruction 96 Activate Serial Data Output.
