Configuring computer

This section describes setting up communications using a terminal emulator program. The terminal emulators built into many Campbell Scientific software products, such as LoggerNet, can also be used.

The following settings should then be used by default:

Bits per second: 38400

Data bits: 8

Parity: none

Stop bits: 1 Flow control: none

NOTE:

After adjusting the baud rate of the unit, use the terminal emulator to adjust the bits per second value in the port settings. The CS120A/CS125 can not communicate with the computer if the unit and port setting baud rates differ.

The CS120A/CS125 should now be ready to accept commands.

The CS120A/CS125 can be set to the default communication state using an internal switch on the sensor main board (see Internal switches).
