Preparation
Confirm that PHOTOS 31 components are intact. For installation, gather a mounting post and either zip ties or 4-40 bolts. Read the full PHOTOS 31 User Manual at metergroup.com/phytos31support. All products have a 30-day satisfaction guarantee.

Connecting
Plug into Data Acquisition System
Connect the stereo plug connector into any METER data logger and configure it to read the PHOTOS 31 (refer to the PHOTOS  31 User Manual). Select a nonzero measurement interval to ensure data are being logged. To connect to a non- METER data logger, see the PHOTOS 31 User Manual.

Verify Readings
Use the SCAN function in the software to show a list of readings. A dry sensor should have raw counts between 430−445 counts.

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