RS 485 Command Alternate

The Sensus Logger also has an RS 485

interface accessible from the connector array

(Figure 19). The signals are available from a

2-way spring terminal block.

This interface can be used as an

alternate to the primary command interface

(RS232) where longer distances exist.

The pin connections for the RS 485

alternate command interface connector are as

follows.

Modems

The Sensus Logger is pre-configured with a generic set of command/

response strings suitable for most Hayes-compatible modems. If the modem

used differs from this standard, these strings will need to be altered to match

the new configuration.

In addition, all command/response time-out values are also

configurable for those instances where the default values are insufficient for

the equipment used.
