For most sensors and measurements, 
a dialog window is then presented 
with several fields and options. 
Click Help to learn more about any 
field or option. 
NOTE  PTemp_C is the temperature measurement of the processing board and therefore does 
not provide an accurate reference temperature for the thermocouple. To make an 
accurate thermocouple measurement with the CR300, an external reference temperature 
NOTE  BattV  (battery voltage) and PTemp_C  (processing board  temperature) are default 
measurements. During operation, battery and temperature should be recorded at least 
daily to assist in monitoring system status.  
After adding the measurement, click 
Wiring Diagram to see how the 
sensor is to be wired to the 
datalogger. Under Progress, click 
Sensors to return to the sensor 
selection screen. 
Click OK in the dialog window to accept default options that include selection of 1 sensor named Temp_C, and 
PTemp_C as the reference temperature measurement.
