General Description FIGURE 1-1. SC105 CS I/O to RS-232 Interface The SC105 (FIGURE 1-1) is used to interface a Campbell Scientific datalogger to any modem that is configured with an RS-232 DCE (Data Communications Equipment) serial port. The SC105 is an intelligent interface that buffers data (1 kB buffer size), allowing many RS-232 data rates, and all CS I/O port modes.

Usually, the SC105 is powered by connecting the SC105’s CS I/O port to the CS I/O port of a datalogger. With the null modem connection to the PC, typically Campbell Scientific’s Device Configuration Utility (DevConfig) is used, but a terminal program such...

SC105 CS I/O to RS-232 Interface enclosures models ENC10/12, ENC12/14, or ENC16/18). Spark gap wiring is straight through such that pin to pin continuity exists between the two modems. If the modems are installed entirely within a building, the transient spark gap protection is probably not needed.
10 to 15 volts. Check the 12 V supply with a voltmeter. On the wiring panel of most Campbell Scientific dataloggers there is a terminal marked 5 V. Check the 5 V supply with a voltmeter. This 5 V supply should be within a tenth of a volt.
SC105 CS I/O to RS-232 Interface CDMA Modem Application In most modem applications, the SC105 can be used with the factory defaults. This sets the SC105 up as modem enable 9600 baud, 8 data bits, Parity None and 1 stop bit. It also sets the DTR dead time to 2 seconds. This dead time is used to prevent characters produce by the modem from waking the datalogger right after communications has been terminated.
