Measurement and Control Peripherals Data loggers and devices to expand your measurement and control ability

About Measurement and Control Peripherals

In addition to the critical role data loggers play in a data-acquisition system, there are other types of measurement devices. Some measurement devices are used to increase the number of terminals that data loggers can use, which enables them to measure more sensors or control more external devices. Other measurement devices offer additional capabilities that would otherwise be unavailable.

What are CDMs, and what do they do?

CDM refers to Campbell Distributed Module. A CDM expands the measurement capability of a datalogger by adding additional channels, controls, or measurement types.
How are CDMs (Campbell Distributed Modules) and SDMs (Synchronous Devices for Measurement) different?

Compared to SDM devices, CDM devices can operate at much higher speeds and with cable lengths that are much longer.
