SHORT HAUL MODEM
INSTALLATION
Refer to FIGURE 18 below: (PRO-SH)
The Short Haul Modem, at the weather
station, is normally installed at the
factory in the ET Enclosure. The Short
Haul Modems enable communication
between the datalogger and the central
computer over two (2) twisted pairs of
wires. The maximum distance between
modems is determined by the baud rate
and the wire gauge. At 9600 baud, the
approximate range is 4.0 miles. DCE/
DTE switches on the modems must be
set to DCE.
INSTALLATION:
For installation of the Short Haul RAD
Modem inside the Enclosure, the
following components are provided in
the Short Haul modem kit:
SC932C Interface w/ribbon cable
RAD Modem
RAD/SC932C Mounting Bracket
Velcro Mounting Strap w/Buckle
Mounting Screws
12 inch 4-wire Patch Cable
Partially install three (3) of the furnished
screws in the holes on the left side of the
Enclosure housing for the datalogger.
Hold the Modem mounting bracket in
the position it will be in the Enclosure.
Thread the Velcro mounting strap
through the two outer slots of the lower
set of slots in the modem mounting
bracket. Thread from the top down on
the far left slot first. The side of the
strap with Velcro should be facing
