9.2 Troubleshooting

9.2.1 No Response Using the Keypad

Check keypad response after each of the following steps.

A. Make sure the battery has been installed, and the power switch, if any, is

“ON”.

B. Use a voltmeter to measure the voltage on the 12 V and G terminals; the

voltage must be between 9.6 and 16 Vdc.

C. Disconnect any sensor or peripheral wires connected to the 5 V and 12 V

terminals.

D. Disconnect any communications or storage peripherals from the

datalogger.

E. Reset the datalogger by turning the power switch to “OFF”, then to “ON”

or disconnecting and reconnecting the battery.

F. If still no response, call Campbell Scientific.

9.2.2 No Response from Datalogger through SC32B or Modem Peripheral

At the datalogger:

A. Make sure the battery has been installed, and the power switch, if any, is

“ON”.

B. Use a voltmeter to measure the voltage on the 12 V and G terminals; the

voltage must be between 9.6 and 16 Vdc.

C. Make sure the datalogger is connected to the modem, and the modem is

properly configured and cabled (Section 8.3, Communication and Data

Storage Peripherals).

At the computer:

D. Make sure the Station File is configured correctly (LoggerNet or PC400

Manual).
