DATA-PORT
Requires an IMC Data-Port ADAPTER that will allow interface to a standard computer's serial RS232 port. The
ADAPTER can also accept a serial to USB converter to connect directly to portable computers that only have
USB ports. If wireless operation is desired for short distances, BLUE TOOTH transceiver can also be
connected. The rate at which the data is sent from the EAGLE solar controller is determined by a jumper in the
controller as show in the CONTROLLER diagram on page 4. If the jumper is placed on position labeled "2S",
one complete line of "total system information" will be sent to the computer every 2 seconds which is necessary
when performing diagnostics or a system startup. If the same jumper is placed on position labeled "6M", then
data will be sent every 6 minutes. This will allow a more suitable data-send rate for long-term DATA LOGGING,
specially when storing the data in a "CAPTURE" file setup in the computer's communications program such as
"Terminal" or "Hyper Terminal".

An IMC LCD MASTER DIGITAL DISPLAY PANEL can also be connected to the DATA PORT. It has an RJ-45
jack and is supplied with a 3 foot long cable that can be substituted with a standard CAT5 cable up to150 feet long.
These ethernet cables are available at most retail stores. The display panel also has a PEAK RESET button
located on the side to reset previous STORAGE temperature peaks.
The Information on the LCD MASTER DISPLAY PANEL is displayed as follows:
COLLECTOR TEMPERATURE
STORAGE TEMPERATURE
DIFFERENTIAL CONTROL SETTING
HI LIMIT CONTROL SETTING
PUMP STATUS
UPPER LIMIT STATUS
PEAK HI= MAXIMUM TEMPERATURE
PEAK LO= MINIMUM TEMPERATURE
AUXILIARY SENSORS 1 AND 2
This Master LCD has a second page that will
display the auxiliary sensor temperatures.
To display, press and release the PAGE/RESET
button on the side of the display housing.
The auxiliary sensors will be displayed within 2
seconds. To RESET the STORED PEAK
temperatures of the storage tank, press and hold
for 6 seconds the PAGE/RESET button. The
current temperatures will appear after the button
is released. The Master LCD display is updated
