You will need a Windows or Linux PC with an RS232
(COM) port, a Güralp Systems digitizer or digital sensor
and a DC power supply of between 12 and 24 volts.

Choose a suitable location for the DCM.

Connect the various parts together:

*

Connect the green digitizer cable (signal + power)
between the PORT A socket on the DCM and the
DATA connector on the digitizer. Connect a second
digitizer or digital sensor to PORT B if applicable;

*

Connect the yellow DCM Ethernet cable between
the NETWORK socket on the DCM and your network
switch or hub;

*

Connect the 9-pin ‘D’ connector on the blue cable
to your PC’s serial (COM) connector;

*

Connect the free, stripped end of the grey cable to
the power supply. Connect the black wire to the
negative (–) terminal and the red wire to the
positive (+) terminal;

*

The blue and grey cables are joined together at a
10-pin mil-spec socket. Attach this to the DATA
OUT
connector on the DCM, and switch on the
power supply. Do this step last..

Run a terminal program, e.g. HyperTerminal, on your PC.
Connect to the relevant serial port with these settings:

*

115,200 baud;
