Campbell Scientific, Inc. Optically Isolated RS-232 Interface SC32B

Description
The SC32B Optically Isolated Interface is used to connect a datalogger’s CS I/O port with a PC’s RS-232 port. This interface converts the computer’s RS-232 voltage levels to the CMOS levels of the datalogger. It also isolates the computer’s electrical system from the datalogger, thereby protecting against ground loop, normal static discharge, and noise. An interface such as the SC32B is required for direct communications between a PC and a CR510, CR500, CR10, CR10X, 21X, or CR7 datalogger. For our CR800, CR850, and CR1000 dataloggers, the SC32B is often used to provide optical isolation between the datalogger and PC. Although the on-board RS-232 port of the CR3000, CR5000, or CR9000X dataloggers is isolated, the SC32B can be interfaced with their CS I/O port when a second RS-232 port is required in the application.
