CR206X
In a simple network, the measurements
are transmitted directly to the computer.
Wireless Sensor Networks
e CR206X, CR211X, and CR216X can be used in
a wireless sensor network. Wireless sensor networks
are appealing because they are o en more economical
than trenching, laying conduit, and pulling wire. In
some applications, cabled sensors are impractical due
to man-made or natural causes, including construc-
tion, lightning, moving platforms, agricultural pro-
duction, or bodies of water.
e diagrams at the top of the page depict our CR206X/
RF401-based wireless sensor networks. Our CR211X/
RF411-based and CR216X/RF416-based networks are
similar. All wireless sensor networks require Logger-
Net 2.1 or higher so ware. e base datalogger must
use the PakBus communication protocol (e.g., CR800,
CR850, CR1000, CR3000). e PB protocol was
optional for our retired CR510, CR10X, and CR23X
dataloggers; the PB operating system is available,
at no charge, from www.campbellsci.com/downloads
for these dataloggers.
Other Applications
Aquaculture• —monitors and records water quality
around the clock providing continuous data that can
be used to identify trends and improve production.
Rural• Water—provides continuous monitoring
of the water system regardless of time of day or
time of year. All monitored sites can be networked
into one integrated system.
Water Level/Flow• —measures level in many en-
vironments including wells, dams, streams, weirs,
and water treatment or wastewater treatment
plants. Compatible with sha encoder, pressure
transducers, compact bubblers, radar water level
sensors, and sonic ranging sensor.
Wate r• Quality—monitors and records water
temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, and turbidity.
Wind• Energy—can be deployed in a wireless
network con guration to provide cost e ective
monitoring at each level of a wind assessment
tower while avoiding long cables.
