  • There is a battery-backed clock in the CR510 that is not in the CR500. 
  • The CR510 has 128K Flash and 128K SRAM memory. The CR500 only has 32k SRAM and 128k Flash.
  • There are several programs in the CR510 that are not in the CR500. 
  • There are 1 MB and 2 MB memory options for the CR510 that are not available for the CR500.

Are CR510s and CR500s compatible with thermocouples?

Are CR510s and CR500s compatible with SDMs and multiplexers?

These dataloggers are NOT compatible with SDMs or multiplexers. If more channels are needed or may be needed in the future, consider purchasing a CR10X instead.
