EXO1 Sonde Overview The EXO1 sonde is a multiparameter instrument that collects water quality data. The sonde collects the data with up to four user- replaceable sensors and an integral pressure transducer. Each sensor measures its parameter via a variety of electrochemical, optical, or physical detection methods. Each port accepts any EXO sensor and automatically recognizes its type. Depending upon user-defined settings, the EXO1 will collect data and store it onboard the sonde, transfer the data to a data collection platform (DCP), or relay data directly to a user's PC or the EXO Handheld.

8 See Section 6 for information specific to vented level sondes. Users communicate with the sonde via a field cable to an EXO Handheld, Bluetooth wireless connection to a PC or EXO Classic Handheld, or a USB connection (via communications adapter) to a PC.

10 The sonde collects the data with up to seven user-replaceable sensors and an integral pressure transducer. Each sensor measures its parameter via a variety of electrochemical, optical, or physical detection methods. Each port accepts any EXO sensor and automatically recognizes the type of sensor. Depending on user-defined settings, the EXO2 will collect data and store it onboard the sonde, transfer the data to a data collection platform (DCP), or relay it to a user's PC or EXO Handheld via cable, USB connection, or Bluetooth connection. In addition to six standard sensor ports, the central port (port 7) can accept either a central wiper or an additional sensor. The auxiliary port on top of the sonde will allow the user to connect the EXO2 to other EXO sondes, making this our most expandable and flexible sonde.
