Can I define a new type of sensor, not included in the MultiLog list of sensors?

Yes, provided that the sensor you are using meets the following conditions: 1.The sensor output voltage is between 0-5 Volts. 2. The sensor has a supply voltage of + 5V. 3. The sensor current consumption is less then 50mA. You can connect this sensor to the datalogger and declare it as a VLT 0-5 Volt sensor. In case you wish to read the sensors values on its own units (not in voltage values) you have to define a new sensor in the DBLab software. Fill in the parameters of the “define new sensor” dialog box in the Logger menu. Now the new sensor will appear in the sensor list of the DBLab’s control panel. After programming the data logger from the control panel you will have the new defined sensors values displayed on the data logger in volts, but on the DBLab graph at their true unit.
