The LLAC4 is a small peripheral that you can use to increase the number of low-level ac signals that your data logger can monitor. The LLAC4 is often used to measure up to four anemometers, and it is especially useful for wind profiling applications.
Leia maisThe LLAC4 enables four data logger control ports to emulate pulse-counting channels by converting the low-level ac signals to logic levels read by the control ports. To use the LLAC4, the data logger control ports must accept high frequency pulses. The LLAC4 typically measures anemometers but can measure other sensors that output pulse counting signals.

The LLAC4 works only with data loggers whose control ports can accept high frequency pulses. The CR23X has four control ports that can be used (5, 6, 7, and 8); the CR200X-series control ports are compatible but are limited to inputs of 1 kHz.
The LLAC4 typically measures anemometers. Compatible anemometers include the Wind Monitors, 03002 Wind Sentry Set, and 03101 Wind Sentry Anemometer. (The 014A Anemometer and 034B Windset are not compatible.) The LLAC4 can also measure other sensors that output pulse counting signals.
Description: Includes two programs, one for a CR1000X and one for a CR350. Both programs measure three different wind speed sensors that produce low-level AC signals. The sensors used are the RM Young 05103 and RM Young 05305 propeller-type anemometers, as well as the RM Young 03101 cup anemometer.

No. But using a LLAC4 will convert the ac signal for up to four 03101-L sensors (and other ac output anemometers) to individual 0 to 5 Vdc TTL level square wave outputs. For more information, see the LLAC4 specification information.
