SC-USB USB to CS I/O Opto-isolated Interface
12
As shown below, the COM port number is shown at the end of the description:
In some cases, a PC program may not offer the SC-USB COM port in its
selection list of available COM ports. Recent versions of Campbell Scientific
packages allow you to manually type the COM port into the selection window
to overcome this.
Older software may also limit you up to COM4. In that case, you would need
to free lower COM port numbers (by uninstalling an unused COM port) and
move the assignment of the SC-USB. To do this, right click on the SC-USB in
the
Device Manager
screen (as shown above) and select
Properties
. Select
Port Settings
and then the
Advanced
button. In the next screen you have the
option to change the COM port number to another free number.
OK
any
change you make and close the
Device Manager
screen before reopening it to
confirm the change (it does not automatically refresh this change).
The baud rate settings in the driver/properties setting have no
influence on the operation of the SC-USB. The speed of
communication to the datalogger is normally determined
automatically by the SC-USB although it can be set in other ways.
See the sections below.
