Effect of Battery Voltage On 10HS Sensors


Jitesh Oct 7, 2010 01:25 PM

Good Day

I have about 16 10HS Moisture Sensors connected to a CR1000. The logger is supplied by a 12V battery and as you know batteries are not a constant supply.

My question is: Will the change in battery voltage effect the moisture readings that I get from my 10HS Sensors as I have noticed a considerable change in mV of the sensors as the battery voltage depreciates.

Another question: Will the lenght of the cable effect the sensor readings.. They are normally around 5m when you purchase them, what would happen if i extend the cable to 10 m.

I have it connected Single Ended:

Red to SE Channel
White to SW12
Screen to ground.

Thanks
