CSAT3B Three-Dimensional Sonic Anemometer 7.7.4 USB NOTE WARNING If data collection from the anemometer is to be done by a PC using USB communications, first connect to the CSAT3B as described in Section 7.1, Settings, to confirm the following settings: Unprompted Output Port: USB Port Unprompted Output Rate: 10, 20, 50 or 100 Hz Operating Mode: • Mode 3: Self-triggered | No filter | Unprompted output to PC or • Mode 4: Self-triggered | Filtered | Unprompted output to PC (If Mode 4, select filter bandwidth.) To complete installation, connect a CSAT3BCBL2 to the Power/SDM port by screwing in the M16 connector into the port until tight. A CSAT3BCBL1 may also be used for power, but the SDM wires will not be used. The CSAT3BCSBL1 also has lighter gauge power wires, which increases voltage losses over long cable length, so it should only be used for shorter cable lengths. Connect the 5 m (16 ft) USB cable included with the CSAT3B to the USB port in the same way. If only one CSAT3B is being measured, the opposite end of the power cable should have pigtail wire leads, which may be connected to a 12 to 32 Vdc power supply, and the USB cable should be connected to a USB port on a PC. For a watertight connection to the USB port, use the included USB cable (pn 30179). For a temporary, non-watertight connection to the USB port, any USB male A type to male Mini-B type cable can be used. Unused ports on the CSAT3B block should always have the caps securely screwed on to avoid water damage to the electronics. 42

CSAT3B Three-Dimensional Sonic Anemometer
7.7.4 USB
If data collection from the anemometer is to be done by a PC using USB
communications, first connect to the CSAT3B as described in Section 7.1,
Settings
,
to confirm the following settings:
Unprompted Output Port:
USB Port
Unprompted Output Rate:
10, 20, 50 or 100 Hz
Operating Mode:
•
Mode 3:
Self-triggered | No filter | Unprompted output to PC
or
•
Mode 4:
Self-triggered | Filtered | Unprompted output to PC (If
Mode 4, select filter bandwidth.)
To complete installation, connect a CSAT3BCBL2 to the
Power/SDM
port by
screwing in the M16 connector into the port until tight.
A CSAT3BCBL1 may also be used for power, but the SDM wires
will not be used.
The CSAT3BCSBL1 also has lighter gauge
power wires, which increases voltage losses over long cable
length, so it should only be used for shorter cable lengths.
Connect the 5 m (16 ft) USB cable included with the CSAT3B to the USB port
in the same way.
If only one CSAT3B is being measured, the opposite end of
the power cable should have pigtail wire leads, which may be connected to a
12 to 32 Vdc power supply, and the USB cable should be connected to a USB
port on a PC.
For a watertight connection to the USB port, use the included USB cable (pn
30179). For a temporary, non-watertight connection to the USB port, any USB
male A type to male Mini-B type cable can be used.
Unused ports on the CSAT3B block should always have
the caps securely screwed on to avoid water damage to
the electronics.
