Section 13. Implementing Advanced Communications Links

13.1.3.1 Hardware Setup

The RF modem in the RF Base has to be configured to work in Synchronous

Device Communication (SDC) mode. This is done by changing the 9

th

DIP

switch inside the RF Base modem to a 0 or closed. This will allow the

datalogger to pass communication to the RF Base.

SDC mode cannot be used with 21X or CR7 dataloggers or any of

the table based dataloggers.

The datalogger and the RF base must both be connected to the remote phone

modem on the same 9 pin ribbon cable.

13.1.3.2 Network Setup in LoggerNet

Setting up a datalogger at the RF base in a Phone to RF system requires that the

datalogger be connected as a child of the remote phone modem, and the RF

Base be connected as a child of the datalogger. Then the RF network is

connected to the RF Base. An example of this type of configuration is shown

below.

In Phone to RF systems with a datalogger at the RF base, you

should set all three levels of datalogger security so the computer

has to unlock the datalogger before getting data. This will prevent

a situation where the computer can be getting data from the wrong

datalogger when a connection to a remote station fails.
