8.3 Communication and Data Storage Peripherals

One or more peripherals (for example, CompactFlash

TM

modules, modems,

etc.) can be mounted to the enclosure backplate (ENC12/14, ENC14/16, or

ENC16/18 enclosures).

8.3.1 CFM100, NL115, or NL120

Connect a CFM100, NL115, or NL120 module to the peripheral port of a

CR1000 or CR3000 datalogger (see FIGURE 8-7). One CompactFlash

TM

card

fits in the CFM100 or NL115’s card slot. For the NL115 or NL120, Ethernet

communications is supported by connecting a 10baseT Ethernet cable.

8.3.2 COM220 Phone Modems

A phone modem enables communication between the datalogger and the computer

(with a Hayes compatible phone modem) over a dedicated telephone line.

Mount the modem to the enclosure backplate as shown in FIGURE 8-8.

1. Mount the modem to the backplate using the four screws and nylon

grommets provided.

2. Connect the modem to the datalogger’s I/O port with the SC12 cable

provided.

3. The telephone company generally provides surge protection, and a patch

cord that plugs into the RJ11C jack. If surge protection has not been

provided, the model 6362 surge protector kit can be installed to the

enclosure backplate. Connect the two terminals on the surge protector to

the “tip” and “ring” terminals on the modem as shown in FIGURE 8-8.

FIGURE 8-7. The NL115 connects to the CR1000’s peripheral port

allowing data to be stored on removable CompactFlash™ cards.
