OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

1. GENERAL 3. PHYSICAL CONNECTIONS


Campbell Scientific's Model A5B40 Isolation Connections to the datalogger for the A5B40
Amplifier is a peripheral that provides electrical are as follows:
isolation for the analog inputs of CSI
dataloggers. The A5B40 is designed around A5B40 Datalogger
the Analog Devices model 5B40-03 Millivolt
Input Module. A fourth-order, low-pass filter, IN HI Sensor HI or Mux Com HI
with a 50 Hz cutoff frequency, was added to IN LO Sensor LO or Mux Com LO

The A5B40 is powered by the datalogger's 12 OUT LO Analog Channel LO

used between an AM32 Multiplexer and the
datalogger, thus providing isolation for up to 32 The maximum and minimum signal inputs to the
analog channels with a single amplifier. A5B40 are +100 mV and -100 mV respectively.
The A5B40 applies a gain of 50 to these signal
When measuring thermocouples, the model and outputs them to the datalogger as +5 V and

These PROMs contain special instructions used

2. PROM INSTALLATION Measuring Millivolt Signals - Use the same


instruction that you would normally use to

OSXA5-2.1 operating system software, simply input range of 5000 mV and to apply a multiplier
follow the instructions as outlined in the of 0.02 to convert to the true mV signal.

the following PROM assignments in Instruction 14 as usual, but be sure to insert the digit "8" in

example, to measure a type T thermocouple,
