Setting Up Communications With The Data Logger - Campbell CR300 Series Product Manual

4. Setting up communications
with the data logger
The first step in setting up and communicating with your data logger is to configure your
connection. Communications peripherals, data loggers, and software must all be configured for
communications. Additional information is found in your specific peripheral manual, and the
data logger support software manual and help.
The default settings for the data logger allow it to communicate with a computer via USB, RS-
232, or Ethernet (on CR310 models). For other communications methods or more complex
applications, some settings may need adjustment. Settings can be changed through Device
Configuration Utility or through data logger support software.
You can configure your connection using any of the following options. The simplest is via USB.

in each step of the wizard by clicking the Help button in the bottom right corner of the window.
