For a more robust connection at the data well
plate, the pass-through ports may be fitted with
UW-BULK
bulkhead receptacle connectors. The
UW-BULK
assembly has the same pinout as iSIC-
CB sensor ports (see Table 1), but the cable
terminates in flying leads for integration with a
user-supplied data logger. The device connected
must have a factory-installed UW connector.

Solar Power Wiring
Figure 12 shows a schematic drawing for the
wiring of the CB-1450 power supply. The system
includes (6) 30-watt solar panels that connect
through the
SOLAR
port on the data well plate to
the
CB-A09-3/4
or user-supplied battery/solar
regulator harness. A wire lead is provided to
supply 12V DC power to electronics inside the
data well (red = +12V, black = GND).
Figure 12:
Wiring Schematic
*NOTE
: The 12V power supply leads for user
supplied electronics will only supply power when
the solar panel is plugged into the SOLAR port on
the data well lid, even if a battery is connected
inside the data well. To supply battery power
without plugging in the solar panel, a special UW
plug with internal jumper is available (P/N
UW-
JUMPER
).
For systems with user-supplied battery and solar
regulator, the battery and regulator can be
connected through the 4-pin Molex connector or
by cutting the wires at section A-A in Figure 12
and splicing the connections. In these situations,
reference the signals listed in Table 2.
