TX320 Transmitter
3.2 Diagnostics Switch
The Diagnostics switch has two purposes. Press and hold the Diagnostics
button for about 2 seconds. The Status LED will flash once to indicate the
Failsafe has not been tripped. If the LED flashes twice, the Failsafe has
tripped. To clear the Failsafe, press and hold the diagnostic button for about
10 seconds.
The Failsafe circuit is designed to shut down a malfunctioning transmitter that
is transmitting too long or too often. The Failsafe circuit helps prevent
malfunctioning transmitters from interfering with other transmissions.
3.3 Communication Ports
The CS I/O port and RS-232 port share the same hardware and
therefore cannot be connected simultaneously.
NOTE
3.3.1 CS I/O Port
The CS I/O port is a Campbell Scientific Synchronous Device for
Communication (SDC) port. The CS I/O port is specifically designed to work
with Campbell Scientific SDC capable dataloggers. The CS I/O port is used
by Campbell Scientific dataloggers to transfer data from the datalogger to the
TX320 transmitter. The CS I/O SDC port allows other SDC devices and one
modem enabled device to be connected to the same port at the same time. This
SDC port will allow the TX320 transmitter, the RF95A RF modem and a
phone modem to be connected to the CSI datalogger serial port all at the same
time. The CS I/O port is a DB9 male, voltage levels are TTL, SDC address 4,
pin out is:
1, 3, 5, 8 are not used
2 = Ground
4 = RXD (output)
6 = SDE (input)
7 = CLK (input)
9 = TXD (input)
3.3.2 RS-232 Port
The RS-232 port is a DB9 female connector configured as DCE. Only three
pins are used, transmit on pin two, receive on pin three, and ground on pin
five. Transmit is an output and receive is an input to the TX320.
The RS-232 port allows the transmitter to be connected to a PC’s 9-pin serial
port or to a datalogger’s RS-232 port. Connection to a PC is required to
configure the transmitter via the 32 bit windows compatible software,
SatCommand. SatCommand software reads, writes, saves, and transmits the
configuration information from the computer to the TX320 transmitter.
SatCommand is also used to read status information from the transmitter.
