  • Page 9: Function

    Figure 1-1. SC32B Optically Isolated RS-232 Interface The SC32B interfaces an RS-232 peripheral, commonly a computer or terminal, to the CS I/O port of a Campbell Scientific datalogger. The SC32B has the same functions as the SC32A. Functions include: Converting datalogger logic levels to RS-232 logic levels.
  • Page 10: Specifications

    Table 3-1. Operation Power for the SC32B datalogger section comes from the 5 V supply on pin 1 of the datalogger CS I/O. Communication logic levels to and from the datalogger are referenced to this voltage, ranging from 0 to slightly less than 5 V.
  • Page 11: Application

    CS I/O ME baud rate matches that being used by the computer/LoggerNet. When other devices are also connected to the datalogger’s CS I/O port, it may be necessary to lower the baud rate used for the SC32B. If you encounter communication issues, consider starting at 9600. If communication is successful, you can increase the baud rate until communication problems return.
