10.1.1.2 Direct Read Cable Assembly Installation
When using a Direct Read Cable, the Solinst Levelogger can be deployed before it is programmed and started
with the software. The Direct Read Cable threads to the Levelogger, while the surface connector at the
opposite end of the Direct Read Cable fits into the specially designed Well Cap insert. The PC Interface Cable
connects to the surface connector, allowing the Levelogger to communicate with a laptop PC (see Section 2).
While use of the Model 3001 Well Cap Assembly (see Section 10.1.1.3) is recommended and convenient, it
is optional as long as a satisfactorily secure alternative tie off point is found for the Direct Read Cable.
