ATMOS 41 QUICK START

Preparation

Verify that all ATMOS 41 components arrived intact. Installation will require a 13-mm (1/2-in) wrench and a secure mounting location. METER recommends a meteorological stand, pole in cement, or tripod with a 31.8- to 50.8-mm (1.25- to 2-in) diameter.

Set up and test the system (sensors and data loggers) in a lab or office. Ensure the data loggers are using up-to-date firmware and software. Verify all sensors read within expected ranges.

Before beginning installation, consider the surroundings and avoid obstructions. Many installations require the ATMOS 41 to be mounted 2 m above ground, but this can be adjusted as needed.

Please read the complete ATMOS 41 User Manual at metergroup.com/atmos41-support. All products have a 30-day satisfaction guarantee.

Connecting

P lug into Data Acquisition System Connect the stereo plug connector into any METER data logger and configure it to read the ATMOS 41 (refer to ATMOS 41 User Manual). Select a nonzero measurement interval to ensure data are being logged. To connect to a non-METER data logger, see the ATMOS 41 Integrator Guide at metergroup.com/atmos41-support.

Verify Readings
Use the scan function in the software to show a list of readings. Verify these readings are within expected ranges.

ATTENTION
For best results, use the latest versions of METER software and firmware for the computer or mobile device, ZENTRA products, and sensors. Please use the software Help menu to find updates. Consult the sensor user manual for more troubleshooting tips.
