APPENDIX C.  SPECIFICATIONS

Data rates

:  up to 38,400 baud (limited by

datalogger)

Size:

  63 x 55 x 17mm (L x W x D), excluding

mating D connectors

Operating environment:

  -25°C to +50

°

C, 0-

95% RH (non-condensing)

Connector pin assignments:

  see Tables C-1

and C-2

Power requirements:

  sources power from

datalogger 5V supply via 9-pin interface.

TYPICAL CURRENT CONSUMPTION

  <100 µA with no RS232 load and pin 11 not

connected

  2.2 mA with RAD and no communication

  9.3 mA with RAD, datalogger in

communications mode, but low
communications activity

  10.2 mA with RAD, high communications

activity

Current consumption when driving other RS232
modems will vary with the number of lines
connected and the input impedance of the
inputs.  With 3 inputs connected (DTR, RTS
and Tx from the SC932C), of the minimum 3k

input impedance, and high communications
activity the consumption may be up to 16mA.

RS232 OUTPUT LEVELS

  RTS 4.2 - 4.5V with 3k

 load – quiescent

state (ME low)

  RTS full power 7 - 9V with 3k

 load (ME

high)

  DTR 7.5 - 9.5V with 3k

 load (8.8V typical

with RAD); short circuit current 30mA
typical

  Tx greater than ±5V with 3k

 load

RS232 INPUT THRESHOLDS RX AND RI

  Input low 0.8V minimum

  Input high 2.4V maximum

  Input resistance 5K

PIN 11, POWER CONTROL INPUT

THRESHOLDS

  Input low 1.3V maximum (normal power

mode)

  Input high 3.5V maximum (to enable high

power mode)

  Input resistance greater than 10k

  Maximum input voltage 20V

TIME-OUTS

  Minimum RING IN pulse width to generate

a ring signal to the datalogger is 20µs

  Minimum delay between ME going low and

RING IN enable is 0.5s (1s typical)

EMC SPECIFICATION

  Emissions BSEN 55022-1: 1995

  Immunity BSEN 50082-1: 1992
