6. CSAT3 Output
The CSAT3 has three signal outputs: SDM, RS-232, and analog. During the Baltimore
Supersite Project the SDM output is used. SDM is a Campbell Scientific communication
protocol used between a Campbell Scientific datalogger and a smart sensor. This protocol
uses control ports 1,2, and 3 to communicate with the CSAT3. The datalogger
instruction, SDM-CSAT3 (P107), is used to communicate with the CSAT3 over SDM
bus.
7. Datalogger Programming using SDM
SDM-CSAT3 (P107) is an Input/Output instruction that controls and retrieves data from
the CSAT3. The wind data and the speed of sound (sonic virtual temperature) is scaled by
Instruction 107 into m/s or degree Celsius.
In Table 3 the SDM-CSAT3 (P107) instruction parameters are listed.
Parameter number Data type Default description
1 Integer Reps
2 Integer SDM Address
3 Integer Option
4 Real Ux input location
Table 3. SDM-CSAT3 (P107) instruction parameters
Reps: The number of CSAT3s on the SDM bus that will be sequentially addressed with
the SDM-CSAT3 (P107) instruction. For this experiment, one CSAT3 will be in
operation.
SDM Address: The unique SDM Address of the CSAT3 that the datalogger will
communicate with. The SDM Address is 3.
Option: Option 91 "trigger and get wind and speed of sound data" is used, which sends a
measurement trigger to the CSAT3 whose SDM address is specified in parameter 2. The
