Technische Beschreibung
The SDM-AO4A is designed to output four continuous voltages at levels set by a Campbell Scientific data logger. The data logger enables individual modules through an addressing scheme; multiple SDMs (in any combination) can be connected to one data logger. After a module is enabled, it operates independently of the data logger until additional commands are received or results are transmitted.
The SDM-AO4A can be operated in ±5 V mode or 10 V mode. In each of these modes, the SDM-AO4A can operate synchronously or sequentially. In synchronous mode, all channels are set at the same time.

Data Logger Considerations
Up to 15 SDM devices can be connected to a single data logger.
Power Supply
It may be convenient to use the data logger’s batteries to power the SDM-AO4A, but consideration must be given to the SDM-AO4A’s continuous current drain (11 mA in ±5 V mode or 21 mA in 10 V mode). The data logger’s alkaline batteries can power one SDM-AO4A for less than a month, and therefore these batteries are not recommended for continuous long-term operation. The data logger’s sealed rechargeable batteries, float charged by an ac supply or solar panel, typically can be used for long-term operation.
The SDM-AO4A may also be powered from an external 12 Vdc source, independent from the data logger batteries. The low side of this external 12 Vdc source needs to be connected to data logger ground and not directly to earth ground.
Enclosure Considerations
The SDM-AO4 requires a desiccated, non-condensing environment; a Campbell Scientific enclosure is recommended. The SDM-AO4A has built-in keyhole flanges for mounting to the backplates of Campbell Scientific enclosures. Grommets and screws are provided to attach the flanges/bracket to the backplate of our enclosures.

-
To get continuous analog outputs, either the SDM-AO4A (four channels, non-isolated, voltage only) or the SDM-CVO4 (four channels, isolated, voltage or current) is needed. Multiples of those devices can be used to acquire more outputs.
-
For the CR1000, to get continuous analog outputs, an SDM-AO4A (4-channels, non-isolated, voltage only) or an SDM-CVO4 (4-channels, isolated, voltage or current) is needed. Multiples of these devices can be used to get more outputs. For single channels of output, some third-party devices can be used.
-
Yes. The CR3000 and CR5000 have two native Continuous Analog Output channels. The SDM-AO4A (voltage) or SDM-CVO4 (voltage or current) can also be used.
-
The CR1000 does not have any continuous analog outputs. It has three excitation channels that are momentarily turned on during measurements. Use the SDM-AO4A for proportional control or driving strip charts.
