Communicating with the CS451/CS456 requires the sensor to be either
connected to a computer or to an SDI-12 recorder. The sensor typically
connects to a computer via the A200 sensor to computer interface. Many SDI-
12 recorders allow communication to the sensor via a terminal screen.
Configurable settings can be changed via SDI-12 commands or by using
Campbell Scientific’s software
Device Configuration Utility
(
DevConfig
).

8.1.1 Computer Connection Using the A200
The A200 or another device is required to connect the CS451/CS456 to a
computer. This allows sensor settings to be changed via
DevConfig
.
8.1.1.1 Driver Installation
If the A200 has not been previously plugged into your computer and your
computer operating system is not Windows 7, the A200 driver needs to be
loaded onto the computer.
