INTRODUCTION
The Socket Cordless Serial Adapter (CSA) will eliminate the need for a
serial cable between your laptop, or PDA, and Sutron Data loggers. The
maximum distance for a connection is 10 meters, depending on any obstacles
between the two devices. This makes it easy to work on data loggers that are
not easily accessible, such as data loggers installed on a tower. This would
also make troubleshooting sensors connected to the data logger easier, as you
could be at the sensor and still access the data logger menus.
This document will guide the user through the steps to install and use
the Bluetooth device with Sutron data loggers, as well as provide some
troubleshooting when problems occur.
