Page 5: Introduction
The quiescent power consumption of the SC-IRDA is very low so it has no significant effect on the overall power consumption of the logging system. -
Page 6: Datalogger Communication Modes
SC-IRDA is compatible with 21X, CR7X, CR500, CR510, CR10, CR10X, CR23X and CR5000 dataloggers. The SC-IRDA supports the SDC protocol if the datalogger also supports this mode, thus allowing the CS I/O port to be shared with modem devices; otherwise it operates as an ME (modem-enabled) device. The SDC protocol is supported by the CR510, CR10X and CR23X standard operating systems, post- dated October 2002 (version 1.18 for the CR10X). - Page 7 SC-IRDA interface. Ideally the two IRDA sensors should point at each other "head-on".

SC-IRDA Infra-red Communications Interface end, but care must be taken to ensure that the 9 way D connector is sealed if exposed to the elements. Contact Campbell Scientific if you require a special assembly. The interface is rated for exposure to temperatures ranging between -25 to +50°C as standard. -
Page 9: Operating Instructions
PConnect software will tolerate a short disturbance to the connection and the various protocols will ensure no loss of data. However, if the connection is broken for more than a few seconds the SC-IRDA may shut down. This may then require PConnect to be terminated, restarted, and the connection re- initialized before further data can be collected or displayed. -

SC-IRDA Infra-red Communications Interface 4.2.1 PC200W Version 1.2 and PC208W Version 3 (or later) Both of these programs will work with the SC-IRDA on all but the slowest PCs. PC200W only supports COM 1 to COM 4, and so you must ensure the virtual IRDA serial port maps to one of these numbered ports. -

9600 baud such as the CR23X and CR5000 dataloggers. To use these speeds a simple ASCII string needs to be sent to the SC-IRDA before any communication is attempted with the datalogger. These strings and their function are shown in the table below. - Page 12 SC-IRDA Infra-red Communications Interface This is a blank page.
