8310 Design • The overall 8310 design utilizes low-power circuitry to achieve long-life battery operation and provide a rugged system for unattended field operation in extreme environments. For even more durability, each 8310 is tested to operate over the -40C to +60C temp extremes expected in remote environments. Full EMI and transient protection are built into each input.
8310 Capabilities & Features • Simple Front panel setup without PC or other devices. • Terminal interface for setup using PC without custom software. • Built-in measurement circuitry to handle sensors commonly used. • Flexible measurement schedules and logging schemes. • Built-in BASIC to support custom measurements, processing and communications. • Built-in support for GOES, Iridium, GPRS, and telephone modems with both data and speech capabilities. • Dual communications support allowing combinations of supported communications devices. • Remote operation without using custom PC programs. • Weatherproof packaging to promote long product life in the field. • Wide temperature operation to operate reliably in environmental extremes. • Battery operation with low power consumption. • Built-in solar panel regulator.
Telemetry Options • Telephone MODEM with Speech • GOES/METOSAT/INSAT Satellite Transmitter • IRIDIUM Transceiver • GSM/GPRS MODEM
Wide Range of Applications • Flood Warning • Weather Stations • Stage and Precipitation Networks • Dam Safety Monitoring • On-site Recording of many kinds of digital or analog data • Irrigation control

Terminology • Measurements • Inputs • Processing • Outputs • Alarms • Alerts
Measurements • The 8310 operates to make measurements. Measurements can be as simple as a single value read from a temperature sensor or more complicated like a vector wind speed average or dew point measurement. When a measurement is set up in the 8310, it is given a name and a number. The measurement numbers are M1, M2...
Inputs • Signals from sensors or instruments (like a voltage or resistance) connected to the 8310. • Depending on the type of measurement, the 8310 will need to read one or more inputs • Built-in support for analog, digital, SDI, RS232 and other types of inputs
Processing • Most inputs need some kind of processing to convert the value measured (e.g. a voltage or resistance) into engineering units (like temperature or pressure) • Supports Slope-Offset calculations, Polynomial, Steinhart-Hart, & Lookup Tables to convert the RAW value measured to the desired units
Outputs • Outputs can be displayed, logged, transmitted and used in other calculations and measurements • Some measurement types have just one output while other types have multiple outputs (Avg, Min, Max, Accum, Instant...)
Alarms • Detection of alarms based on comparing a value with a user set hi limit, low limit and/or rate of change limit • Alarm noted in the Alarm status menu
Alerts • Messages Sent Using Communication Devices to Provide Notice of Alarms

Diagnostics /SDI Tools • This menu provides tools useful in operating and maintaining SDI-12 devices. SDI-12 is an industry standard protocol for serial smart sensors. The tools menu provides functions to find devices that have been connected to the SDI-12 bus and communicate with them. • System Status provides a way to view: Recent Logged Messages, SW Version, Communications, Basic, I2C, Serial Number, Num Resets. Diagnostics /System Status
Station SetupThe Station Setup menu provides a way to perform most of the essential functions needed to set up an 8310. A typical Station Setup menu... • Station Setup • Measurements (9) > • Basic > • Communications (4) > • Logs (2) > • Log Records (1) > • Users (0) > • Advanced Settings > • Read setup from file • Write setup to file • Clear setup • Save formatted setup • End Station Setup

Station Setup/Communications • The Station Setup/Communications menu shows all communications ports that are in the system as shown below. From this menu you can see the type of communications configured for each device and the status of each device. You can press RIGHT to see and optionally change the detailed settings for each device. You can change the type of device attached to COM4. You cannot change the com type for COM1, COM2 and COM3 from this menu as these ports are the internal ports and not normally changed by the user. COM1 is always type DIRECT and cannot be changed. You must use the Advanced Settings to change the type of COM2 and COM3. • A typical communications menu is shown below: • Communications (3) • COM1: (Started) DIRECT • COM2: (Started) VOICE • COM3: NO CONNECT • COM4: SATLINK • LAN (Disabled-On) ► • End Communications
