Direct connections -<br />
4100/4200/6700<br />
Direct connections use a cable to attach your PC to the <strong>Isco</strong><br />
instrument.<br />
• 4100, 4200, and 6700 Series instruments use an<br />
Interrogator Cable for direct connections. The<br />
interrogator cable is also compatible with the 675 and<br />
676 Logging Rain Gauge.<br />
• 2100 Series instruments including the Field Wizard use a<br />
Communications Cable for direct connections.<br />
• Pulse Doppler Series instruments use a Communications<br />
Cable for direct connections.<br />
When the interrogator port is easily accessible, you may use the<br />
10-foot long one-piece interrogator cable. Unrestricted access to<br />
the interrogator port allows you to connect to the instrument as<br />
needed, and to disconnect and cap the port when you are<br />
through.<br />
• Part Number 60-2544-044 - for computers with a 9-pin<br />
connector<br />
• Part Number 60-2544-040 - for computers with a 25-pin<br />
connector<br />
• Part Number 60-2004-507 - for computers with a USB<br />
connector<br />
If the instrument’s location is inaccessible, use the two-piece<br />
interrogator cable. It is a set of two cables, one 10 feet long and<br />
one 3 feet long. The 10-foot cable connects to the instrument,<br />
while the 3-foot cable connects to your PC. These two cables are<br />
connected to communicate with the instrument. When you are<br />
done, disconnect the two cables from each other. Because the 10-<br />
foot section should remain connected to the instrument, a 10-foot<br />
cable is needed for each inaccessible instrument.<br />
• Part Number 60-2544-025 - 10-foot cable, connects to the<br />
instrument<br />
• Part Number 60-2544-026 - 3-foot cable, connects to<br />
computer with a 9-pin connector<br />
• Part Number 60-2544-027 - 3-foot cable, connects to<br />
computer with a 25-pin connector<br />
• Part Number 60-2544-028 - 25-foot extension cable<br />
Note: 4100 Series Flow Loggers and 4200 Series Flow Meters - If<br />
you are connecting a battery-powered flow logger, the<br />
interrogator cable must be disconnected when not in use.<br />
Otherwise, the flow logger will drain its battery unnecessarily.<br />
One-piece cables must be completely removed from the flow<br />
logger, and the interrogator port should be capped to prevent<br />
damage. If you are using a two-piece cable, they must be<br />
separated.<br />
