			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I hacked the Alpha Labs magnetometer to add an interface for the DAQ. Here is the finished product:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1566" title="IMG_4072" src="http://prometheusfusionperfection.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/img_4072.png?w=510" alt="IMG_4072"   /></p>
<p>Here is how:</p>
<p>First I got some info from the <a href="http://www.trifield.com/" target="_blank">manufacturer</a>:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1567" title="DCM output instructions" src="http://prometheusfusionperfection.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/dcm-output-instructions.jpg?w=510" alt="DCM output instructions"   /></p>
<p>Easy! Now we cut a shape out of prototype PCB by scoring and snapping:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1568" title="IMG_4052" src="http://prometheusfusionperfection.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/img_4052.png?w=510" alt="IMG_4052"   /></p>
<p>I used a small circle file to remove the corners we cannot score and snap:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1569" title="IMG_4054" src="http://prometheusfusionperfection.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/img_4054.png?w=510" alt="IMG_4054"   /></p>
<p>Here is the finished PCB fragment:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1570" title="IMG_4058" src="http://prometheusfusionperfection.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/img_4058.png?w=510" alt="IMG_4058"   /></p>
<p>Next we solder in some jumpers, mount the piece and solder the cable tie-downs to secure the assembly:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1571" title="IMG_4062" src="http://prometheusfusionperfection.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/img_4062.png?w=510" alt="IMG_4062"   /></p>
<p>And wire it all up:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1572" title="IMG_4070" src="http://prometheusfusionperfection.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/img_4070.png?w=510" alt="IMG_4070"   /></p>
<p>I plugged it into a differential channel on the DAQ and&#8230;</p>
<p>SUCCESS!</p>
<p>We have a DC magnetometer sending data to the computer. Regarding interpreting the results, Andrew from Alpha Labs says:</p>
<blockquote><p>The Gauss conversion to output voltage is 200mV at full scale. So if you are in the 20,000 range and you are reading 5000 Gauss, your output should be 50mV. If you are in the 2000 Gauss range reading 1500 Gauss, your output should be 150mV. So the output jack gains by 10 WITH the range control switch.</p></blockquote>
