3. Set-up Menu

The SC105 has a built-in set-up menu for configuring communication mode, 

CS I/O port configuration, RS-232 port configuration, and other parameters. 

The Set-up Menu is shown in FIGURE 

3-1

It is accessed by connecting the 

SC105’s RS-232 port to a PC with the included null modem cable. The SC105 

also needs to have power. Usually, the SC105 is powered by connecting the 

SC105’s CS I/O port to the CS I/O port of a data logger.  

With the null modem connection to the PC, typically Campbell Scientific’s 

Device Configuration Utility

 (

DevConfig

) is used, but a terminal program such 

as 

HyperTerminal

TM

 or 

Procomm

TM

 (always 9600 baud, 8-N-1) can also be 

used. Press the 

Program

 button on the SC105 for one second to access the Set-

up Menu. Changed settings are saved in flash memory by selecting 

Apply

 in 

DevConfig or menu item 

4

 if using HyperTerminal or Procomm. If left idle, 

the Set-up Menu will time out 60 seconds after the last received character and 

exit without saving any parameter changes with the message “Set-up Timeout.” 

A data logger can remain connected to the CS I/O port (to provide power to
