Template File Name Description
RV50_115200.xml 115200 baud RS-232, 10 Mbps Ethernet. The
most common template used. Use with
dataloggers such as CR300-series, CR800-
series, CR1000, CR3000, and CR6.
RV50_9600.xml 9600 baud RS-232, 10 Mbps Ethernet. Most
commonly used with older model dataloggers
such as CR200X-series, CR10X, and CR23X.
NOTES:
Campbell Scientic templates reduce power consumption by changing LED
behavior to report activity and errors only.
Default port numbers- Serial Server: 3001, PPP Pakbus: 6785
6. Click WAN/Cellular SIM Slot 1 Conguration. Enter APN provided by cellular
provider into User Entered APN. See manual for common examples.
7. Reboot the RV50 after successfully applying the conguration template. Do
this by clicking the Reboot button in the ACEmanager toolbar, by momentarily
pressing the Reset button (2 seconds), or by temporarily removing power from
the RV50.
8. Log in again. Check the Status Network State eld. It should read ‘Network
Ready,’ indicating the RV50 is connected to the cellular network. The RV50’s
connection to the Internet can easily be tested by selecting the Admin |
Advanced tab and using the PING tool to ping an Internet server, such as
www.campbellsci.com.
With the appropriate RV50 template applied and the RV50 connected to the
datalogger RS-232 or CS I/O port, most dataloggers do not require any further
conguration. If PPP or the Ethernet port is used, additional conguration of the
RV50 and the datalogger is required. See the RV50 manual for more information.
The RV50 has optional PPP support for the datalogger’s PPP and Internet protocol
capabilities such as Email, FTP, HTTP, etc. This applies to the CR300-Series, CR800-
Series, CR1000, CR3000, and CR6 connected via RS-232 or CS I/O. To enable PPP in
the datalogger:
1. Connect to the datalogger using Campbell Scientic’s Device Conguration
Utility (DevCong).
2. On the Deployment | PPP tab, change:
a. Cong/Port Used to the datalogger serial port that will be connected to
the RV50 RS-232 port. A common selection is RS232.
b. Modem Dial String to AT\APPP
3. On the Deployment | ComPorts Settings tab, select the datalogger serial
port that will be connected to the RV50 RS-232 port and change Baud Rate to
115.2k Fixed. This is done to match the conguration of the RV50.
4. Using the Deployment | Network Services tab, protect the datalogger by
disabling any services that are not required. Common examples include FTP,
HTTP, and Telnet.
Dataloggers can be connected in a variety of ways to suit the needs of the
application. Common methods include the use of one of the following serial or
Ethernet peripherals.
