Page 4: Introduction
In most in- stances the CC-3000 will be used with a third party software programs. In these instances, you will need to use this guide to install and connect the CC- 3000 to you computer. -
Page 5: Software Requirements
The CC-3000 can also be used with any generic terminal emulator software such as HyperTerminal. Refer to the protocol section of this manual for details. Hardware Specifications The CC-3000 is available in several variants. -

Page 7: Getting Started
Getting Started Each CC-3000 is supplied with a 9 or 12 VDC DC power supply and commu- nication cable. This will either be a USB cable or a serial RS-232 cable de- pending on the model. A: CC-3000 B: Power Supply... -

Ensure that power is applied only after all the receiver connec- tions have been made. The power jack is located on the back of the CC-3000 and the receiver jack is on the side. Do not apply power to the radio receiver, only apply power to the CC-3000. -
Page 9: Connecting Lr Models
Make sure that the USB driver is correctly installed before connecting the USB cable to the computer. The USB port is located on the back of the CC-3000. The USB driver will assign a communications port to the device. Note that the port number will change if you plug the USB cable into a different port. -
Page 10: Verifying Communication With The Weather Station
Verifying Communication with the Weather Station A red LED is located on the back of the CC-3000. This LED will flash when the interface is receiving data from a weather station. It will blink every two seconds. As 418/433 MHz systems only broadcast every thirty seconds, the LED will provide one long blink upon reception of the data packet. -
Page 11: Reset Button
Reset Button The reset on the back of the CC-3000 will force a soft reset. This will cause the device to reboot but will not reset the system clock. A soft reboot can also be initiated by issuing the “REBOOT” command. Refer to the instruction set for details. -
Page 13: Command Set
Commands Set: Commands must be terminated with a <CR> character. Responses begin and end with a <CR><LF>. If the command syntax or parameters are incorrect the device will respond with ERROR. If the command is accepted the device will respond with OK. Com- mands may not be chained together. - Page 14 WIND SPEED : Current wind speed or interval average. WIND GUST : Wind speed gust for the logging interval. PRESSURE : Barometric pressure. TEMP IN : Current inside temperature RAIN : Current daily rainfall total. !XXXX : CRC-16 Checksum. See Calculating the Checksum.
- Page 15 UNITS=ENGLISH UNITS=METRIC Syntax (Write): Sample Read Response: ENGLISH Sample Write Response: Logging Interval: LOGINT Description: Returns the current logging interval no parameter is supplied. The interval is set by supplying the desired logging rate in minutes. Zero pre- vents logging. 60 is the maximum value. Values: 0 - 60 LOGINT=?
- Page 16 Refer to the MAX and MIN for format details. Issuing DOWNLOAD without a parameter will cause the CC- 3000 to download all records. By specifying a number, the CC-3000 will download the specified number of records. These will be the last saved records.

Syntax(Read) : TIME=YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm:ss Syntax(Write) : Sample Read Response: 2010/08/24 14:36:55 Sample Write Response: TIME=2010/10/04 09:23:30 Daylight Saving: Description: If issued without a parameter, the device will return the dates and times when the clock will change due to daylight saving. The number of minutes that the clock will change are also reported.
- Page 19 Syntax (Read): RAIN=RESET Syntax (Write): Sample Read Response: Sample Write Response: Battery Charger: CHARGER Description: Indicates the charger status and battery voltage of the backup batteries in the CC-3000. TIME indicates how many minutes the batteries have been on charge.

This affects the header, output strings, minimums and maximums.
- Page 22 ENABLED Sample Write Response: Calculating the Checksum: The CC-3000 uses a 16 CRC checksum. The CRC uses the same polynomial as the one used in Xmodem transfers (XMODEM-CRC). The Polynomial is as follows: The CRC is calculation starts at the first ASCII character of the response.
