Hi!
I need to acquire data from a Cyclops 7 sensor to arduino.
The sensor has a 4 wire connection. Positive and negative Power supply and Positive and negative signal.
The sensor Vin is 5-16V and the output 0-5V.
This values make them perfect for a arduino datalogger.
I think connecting the sensor as in the attachment.
But im not sure if this is the best wiring and i dont want to try this with a high value sensor if not 100% sure.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english.
"Signal Output: 0 - 5 VDC
Supply Voltage Range: 3 - 15 VDC
Power Requirements: <300mW typical"
"The Turner Designs Cyclops Submersible Sensor is an accurate single-channel
detector that can be used for many different applications. It is designed for
integration into multi-parameter systems from which it receives power and
delivers a voltage output proportional to the concentration of the fluorophore,
particle, or compound of interest.
The Cyclops voltage output can be correlated to concentration values by
calibrating with a standard of known concentration."
So, read the output with an analogRead, and do some calibration reads before using it for real.

Green & Black are both Ground, White is the analog output signal, Red is power.
Thx for the info. Ill try it tomorrow then.
