Overview

The LLAC4 is a small peripheral that increases the number of low-level ac signals a datalogger can monitor. The LLAC4 is often used to measure up to four anemometers, and it is especially useful for wind profiling applications.

Detailed Description

The LLAC4 enables four datalogger control ports to emulate pulse-counting channels by converting the low-level ac signals to logic levels read by the control ports.

Additional Compatibility Information

Data Logger Considerations

The LLAC4 works only with data loggers whose control ports can accept high frequency pulses. The CR23X has four control ports that can be used (5, 6, 7, and 8); the CR200X-series control ports are compatible but are limited to inputs of 1 kHz.

Sensors

The LLAC4 typically measures anemometers. Compatible anemometers include the Wind Monitors, 03002 Wind Sentry Set, and 03101 Wind Sentry Anemometer. (The 014A Anemometer and 034B Windset are not compatible.) The LLAC4 can also measure other sensors that output pulse counting signals.

LLAC4 Program Example (2 KB) 21-05-2024

Description: Includes two programs, one for a CR1000X and one for a CR350. Both programs measure three different wind speed sensors that produce low-level AC signals. The sensors used are the RM Young 05103 and RM Young 05305 propeller-type anemometers, as well as the RM Young 03101 cup anemometer.
