4.2.2
Optional Serial Output – SDI Adapter Unit
The ODO-1000L Sensor provides on board data logging of all data and serial output via RS232 to a
Laptop or PC using the supplied
SensorMate
software.
A feature of the sensor is the ability to also provide serial output in SDI12 format using a small SDI
Adapter unit connected to the end of the sensor cable. The SDI12 Adapter unit
(Part No 7SDI-1000)
provides a standard 3 wire SDI12 output for connection to a third party Data Logger or Process
Controller. The ODO-1000L Sensor can simultaneously provide on-board data logging, as well as act
as a standard SDI12 sensor.
When data is requested via SDI-12 the sensor will wake up and take a new set of readings for all
channels that are enabled in the sensor. The sensor will then go into a low power, sleep mode. The
user can enable or disable channels using SensorMate.
The easiest way to confirm which channels are enabled and what order the data will be returned via
SDI-12 is to view the SensorMate monitor screen. By default, the data returned via SDI-12 will be the
same channels and in the same order as what is displayed in the SensorMate monitor screen.
NOTE:
Memory Used and Memory Used % is not returned via SDI-12.
