Page 12: Installation Considerations
1.12 Installation considerations The CDS549 Stratus Pulse logger is environmentally rated to IP68 - max1.2m. In order to achieve this, it is critical that any cables entering the logger are properly sealed by the IP68 gland. This gland is designed to only have one cable exiting the logger and not multiple ones.
Page 13: Logger Setup
2.1 Setup via Bluetooth Configure The CDS549 Stratus Pulse logger has an onboard Bluetooth interface which allows for the device configuration to be done locally. There are two different places in the software to activate the Bluetooth connection. The first option is from the log in screen at start up.
Page 14 USER MANUAL : CDS549 STRATUS PULSE LOGGER The second option is on the Zone screen by pressing the 'Device Setup' button. Activating this function will launch the Bluetooth Server which will search for the available remote devices in the immediate vicinity.
Page 15 Once the Bluetooth connection has been established, Cloudworks will automatically activate the correct configuration screen needed for each device type. This device will immediately be placed into Command Mode and the current setup data retrieved and displayed on the right hand screen.
Page 16 USER MANUAL : CDS549 STRATUS PULSE LOGGER To switch between the Diagnostic Mode and Command Mode, simply press the 'Command/Connect' button. Switching from the Diagnostic Mode to Command Mode can take several seconds depending on what the logger is currently executing.
Page 17 USER MANUAL : CDS549 STRATUS PULSE LOGGER Local IP Local IP address assigned by the GSM network. This data is important when using a static IP system to ensure that the correct IP has been assigned to the logger. Datalog Size Number of records in the datalog/maximum number possible for the selected application type.
Page 18 Cloudworks loggers support the use of simcard pin codes. How this works is - should a simcard have a pincode activated, it will request the pincode when the modem powers up and starts connecting to the network.
Page 19 USER MANUAL : CDS549 STRATUS PULSE LOGGER If you are using a foreign simcard on a network, the logger will need to be told that it is allowed to use data roaming. Without that, the logger will shutdown communications if it detects a roaming data connection. This can be done by ticking the option box.
Page 20 USER MANUAL : CDS549 STRATUS PULSE LOGGER Battery operated loggers will wake up, connect to the server and upload their data. Should this fail, it would be a large drain on the battery of the logger to continually try and connect. For this reason, the logger has a single chance to wake up and establish a connection.
Page 21 Upgrading firmware on the logger can be done through the Bluetooth interface. Newer versions of the software for each type of device is embedded into the Cloudworks software so will not need an internet connection to collect the data. When in Command Mode, press the 'Upgrade Firmware' button. The first thing the software will do is to determine the current firmware version on the logger and see if there is an upgrade available.
Page 22 USER MANUAL : CDS549 STRATUS PULSE LOGGER Please do not at any stage interrupt the process while the firmware is downloading as this may leave the logger inoperable and necessitate that it get sent back to the manufacturer for recovery.
Page 23: Cds549 Stratus Pulse Logger Setup Via Remote Configure
