Step 8 Wire Communication Equipment
Communication equipment must be installed in order to communicate, either lo-
cally or remotely, with the 5200A. The communication connection can be made
locally (RS232) or remotely with a serial to ethernet device.
Only one connection
method can be used at a time.
AquaManager supports both connection methods.
Notes:
-
Firmware can only be uploaded to an instrument using a local RS232 con-
nection. See Update 5200A Firmware - page 123.
-
On a network, install and configure RS232 or the serial to ethernet device
hardware on the master node only.
Email Alarming
Email alarming can be configured in one of two ways:
-
from a PC running the AutoPoll Program that is included with AquaMan-
ager software (PC must have internet connection). This is referred to as
AquaManager email
.
-
via a serial to ethernet* device with TCP/IP connection at master 5200A.
This is referred to as
5200A email
.
*Serial to ethernet connection requires access to a SMTP server accessible by the
local network.
RS232 Communication

Notes:
-
When using a USB-Serial Adapter, verify that the port number assigned
during driver installation is the same port configured when using Aqua-
Manager and/or the Firmware Updater.
-
Use only a Tripp-Lite Keyspan USB-Serial Adapter, model USA-19HS YSI
p/n
773
(64-bit).
-
When making RS232 cable runs greater than 100 feet (30.5 m), use an RS232
Line Extender/Booster. Mount the booster in an area where it is protected
from moisture.
