Wiring using Campbell Scientific cables
The sensor is provided pre-wired with a default 5 m power and communications cable, which is terminated at one end with a 9 pin D-connector (DB9). The D-connector can be connected directly to a computer or to a data logger, such as the CR1000Xe, using a suitable interconnecting cable like the SC110. If another type of connection is required, then the D-connector should be removed.
Communications and power cable diagram
Campbell Scientific offers two types of configuration cables that plug directly into connector B, instead of the normal connector and cable. One cable provides an RS-232 or RS-485 output, according to the CS120A/CS125 configuration (RS-232/RS-485 configuration cable), and one has a USB output (USB configuration cable).
