The X2-CB has an innovative power design that allows for simple connectivity and interfacing with sensors on NexSens CB-Series buoys. Power Jumper CB-Series solar towers have a special UW-6 plug with a jumper built in that completes the circuit for the battery to supply power to the X2-CB data logger. The X2-CB will not receive […]
NexSens always recommends sending an X2-CB data logger in for an SD card installation or replacement due to the location of the card on the circuit board. However, in some cases, the end user may need to install an SD card. Before accessing the X2-CB SD card, ensure to have an SD card reader and […]
Proper O-ring maintenance on an X2-SDL submersible data logger is critical to prevent moisture intrusion and achieve the full depth rating. The X2-SDL contains (3) user-servicable O-rings, all located on the white battery lid. All O-rings should be inspected during each battery change. General Maintenance Keep O-rings clear from debris that may affect even surface […]
If an X2-CB data logger needs to be sent in for evaluation or repair, please reference the following steps for removal: Tools Required 9/16″ Socket Wrench Instructions Disconnect the 6-pin solar panel or UW-6 USB cable from the X2-CB/X2-CBMC SOLAR/COM port to remove power from the data logger. [For CB-150/250/450 buoys only] […]
Grounding a data logger is critically important to ensure measurement accuracy and prevent damage to a data logging system. Damage can either occur acutely or manifested through intermittent hardware problems that are difficult to diagnose and can result in an eventual failure. While lightning strikes are an obvious source of power surges that can damage […]
The seemingly simple question of, “how do I get my data?” can be complicated to answer, so we explore why wireless water quality monitoring options are so important to users, what today’s monitoring options look like, and the solutions the technology presents for users.
