Product Overview
Rugged programmable field data logger with its detachable wiring panel
Condition
Used, clean, and in excellent condition. The photos show light scuffs on the stainless module canister and black panel frame, but the green screw terminal blocks are clean and straight, the panel legends are sharp, and the earth ground lug and its copper washer are bright. The photographed module label reads CR10X Measurement and Control Module, S/N X 25472, firmware copyright 1983, 1986, 1995, with a calibration sticker dated cal 01/09/01, due 01/09/02 - long expired, consistent with our untested offering. Untested - we do not have the equipment to power and program it - but the unit shows very little prior use. Sold as described.
Same or next business day shipping from our Idaho warehouse. Honest pricing, no nonsense.

Product Overview
The Campbell Scientific CR10X is a rugged, programmable measurement and control module built for precision data collection in remote and demanding environments. This unit ships with its detachable wiring panel - the photos show the two apart, mating through a D-sub connector, with the panel carrying the labeled sensor terminals, G/12V power input, and 9-pin CS I/O serial port. The CR10X offers 12 single-ended or 6 differential analog inputs at 13-bit resolution (about 0.33 uV), 2 pulse counting inputs, 8 digital control I/O ports, and 3 excitation outputs for sensors - all silkscreened on the panel exactly as Campbell wired them - with storage for 62,000 data points (expandable with optional 2M memory) and scan rates up to 64 Hz, or 750 Hz in burst mode, in a sealed housing with internal desiccant.

Frequently Asked Questions
Has this unit been tested?
No. We do not have the equipment to power and program it, so it is sold untested. The calibration sticker on the module expired in 2002. It shows very little prior use, and it is backed by our no-hassle satisfaction guarantee.
What is included?
The CR10X module and its matching wiring panel, as photographed. No power supply, software, or accessories are included.
How do I connect to it?
Through the 9-pin CS I/O port on the wiring panel, visible in our photos next to the G/12V power input. Software and interface cabling are not included - verify your requirements against Campbell Scientific documentation before ordering.
How much data can it store?
Up to 62,000 data points as configured. Storage is expandable with Campbell's optional 2M memory; no expansion module is included or confirmed on this unit.
What kind of wear does it show?
Minor scuffs and scratches on the canister and panel from normal use and storage. Terminals, legends, and labels are clean and intact.
Why buy a single logger here instead of an auction lot on eBay or Amazon?
Because one honest unit beats a pallet mystery. We sell exactly the quantity you need with straight photos of real stock, shipping is a flat $8 and free over $28 - so this logger ships free - same or next business day from Idaho.
The CR10X made its living in places without an audience: ridge tops, river banks, farm fields, logging away in all weather. Give this one a program and a power source and it will pick the habit right back up.
