Introduction

The CR6 is a powerful core component for your data-acquisition system. The CR6 provides fast communications, low power requirements, built-in USB, compact size, and high analog input accuracy and resolution. It uses universal (U) terminals to allow a connection to virtually any sensor—analog, digital, or smart. This multipurpose data logger is also capable of doing static vibrating-wire measurements.

The CR6 includes the following data loggers:

  • CR6-RF407
  • CR6-RF412

  • CR6-RF422

  • CR6-RF427

  • CR6-RF451

  • CR6-RF452

  • CR6-WIFI

The Getting Started Guide   provides an introduction to data acquisition and walks you through a procedure to set up a simple system. You may not find it necessary to progress beyond this. However, should you want to dig deeper into the complexity of the data logger functions or quickly look for details, extensive information is available in this and other Campbell Scientific manuals.

Additional Campbell Scientific publications are available online at www.campbellsci.com . Video tutorials are available at www.campbellsci.com/videos . Generally, if a particular feature of the data logger requires a peripheral hardware device, more information is available in the manual written for that device.
