#8 Additional Loops - Additional loops may be used if sensors that
require different measurement instructions are connected to the same
multiplexer. In this instance, like sensors are assigned to sequential
input SETS. Each group of sensors is measured in a separate loop
(steps 2 through 7, Table 2). Each loop contains clock and
measurement instructions, and all loops must reside between the
instructions that activate and deactivate the AM16/32 (Steps 1 and 9).
The instruction sequence for control of an AM16/32 is given on the
following page. The program format is a product of Edlog a
datalogger program editor contained in CSI's PC208W Datalogger
Support Software.
5.2 Multiple Loop Instruction Sequence
As shown above, the programs for operation of the AM16/32 are
essentially the same for all CSI dataloggers. To measure sensors of
different types, different measurement instructions may be used within
successive program loops. In the following example, each loop is
terminated with Instruction 95, and the multiplexer is not reset
between loops. The example demonstrates the measurement of two
dissimilar sensor types (i.e. strain gages and potentiometers).
The program and accompanying wiring diagram are intended as
examples only; users will find it necessary to modify both for specific
applications.
