Reset Button
The reset on the back of the CC-3000 will force a soft reset. This will cause the
device to reboot but will not reset the system clock. A soft reboot can also be
initiated by issuing the “REBOOT” command. Refer to the instruction set for
details.
Backup Batteries
The CC-3000 must use 4 AA NiMH batteries for backup in the event of AC
power loss. These
batteries are optional . Stored data will not be lost if the
batteries are not used. With batteries installed the CC-3000 will continue to
function normally with no AC power. The run time will depend on the charge
state, capacity and age of the batteries. If batteries are not installed the CC-
3000 will not lose any stored data but it will lose its clock setting and will not
record any new data while not powered. The clock will reset to the factory de-
fault on power up.
The CC-3000 will automatically detect when to charge the batteries and will
keep them fully charged. The CC-3000 charger is a slow charger and will take
up to 48 hours to recharge a completely depleted battery.
The battery voltage and charger status are available using the command proto-
col but not all 3rd party software programs support this functionality.
It is recommended that the NiMH batteries are replaced every year for opti-
mum performance.
- USE RECHARGEABLE NiMH BATTERIES ONLY!-
Software/Firmware Updates
The software or firmware in the CC-3000 can be updated or changed using
either the USB or RS-232 connection depending on the model. Updates can not
be performed using the RS-485 port. Updates will be posted on the Rainwise
website. Versions will vary depending on model. Make sure you read the up-
date instructions carefully to be sure you are installing the correct software. As
with all updates there are risks associated with changing the flash memory.
Updates are loaded using a Windows based program called IAPflash. This pro-
gram is supplied with the “.enc” file along with instructions. Windows is re-
quired to perform updates. No other operating systems are currently supported.
