Operating System/Logic Control
e on-board operating system includes measurement,
processing, and output instructions for programming
the datalogger. e programming language, CRBASIC,
uses a BASIC-like syntax. Measurement instructions
speci c to bridge con gurations, voltage outputs, thermo-
couples, and pulse/frequency signals are included.
Processing instructions support algebraic, statistical,
and transcendental functions for on-site processing.
Output instructions process data over time and control
external devices. ese instructions include averages,
maximums, minimums, standard deviation, histograms,
rain ow histograms, level crossings, and FFTs.
Enclosure Options
8253 Fiberglass Environmental Enclosure
e environmental enclosure is designed for eld applica-
tions where the enclosure will be exposed to the elements.
A CR9000X housed in this enclosure is protected from
water, dust, and most environmental pollutants.
8255 Lab Enclosure
e Lab Enclosure is for applications where the
CR9000X will reside inside a building.
Measurement and Control Peripherals
e following peripherals expand the capabilities of
the CR9000X series:
• AM25T Multiplexer increases the number of ther-
mocouples/voltages that can be measured. Combi-
nations of both can be made on each AM25T.
• SDM-CAN Interface allows the datalogger to
sample data directly from a CANbus network.
• SDM-INT8 Eight Channel Interval Timer ex-
pands the number of pulse channels in the sys-
tem and outputs period, pulse width, frequency,
counts, and interval time.
• SDM-SIO4 Serial Input/Output Module pro-
vides four con gurable serial RS-232 ports for
connectingour GPS sensor or other devices that
transfer data in a serial manner.
Although the following peripherals do not support the
maximum measurement rate, the CR9000X series is
also compatible with:
• SDM-CD16AC 16-Channel AC/DC Relay Controller
• SDM-CVO4 4-Channel Current/Voltage
Output Module
• AM16/32B Multiplexer
Data Storage and Retrieval
Data storage and retrieval options commonly used
with the CR9000X series include:
• PCMCIA Cards or CompactFlash® (CF) Cards
can be used to augment the datalogger’s storage
capacity or to transport data or programs from the
datalogger to a PC.
• Ethernet Cables connected to the on-board 10baseT/
100baseT port transmit data to a PC with an Ethernet
port via a local network or the Internet.
• PC or laptop can be connected directly to the dat-
alogger’s RS-232 port (no interface required). is
port provides electrical isolation. Alternatively, the
PC or laptop can be connected to the CR9000X’s
CS I/O port via an SC32B or SC-USB interface.
Although the following peripherals do not support the
maximum measurement rate, the CR9000X series is
also compatible with:
• Telephone modems (landline and cellular)
• Spread spectrum radios
The SDM-CAN allows a vehicle’s on-board diagnostic system to
output standardized data streams that are synchronized with
other measurements and stored in the CR9000X.
The CR9000XC includes a non-corrosive, sealed, aluminum
enclosure that provides protection from water, dust, and most
environmental pollutants.
