CC640 Digital Camera
Figure 4 Using C2006 adapter board to carry RS-232 TX and RX on multi-conductor cable
The necessary RS-232 TX (transmit) and RX (receive) signals can also be carried
by the recommended 6 conductor cable. Figure 4 demonstrates using a DB-9 to
terminal breakout board (part C2006) and the standard cable to transmit the RS-
232 signals. This provides a practical means of carrying the RS-232 signals when
the camera is installed remotely from the datalogger.
If the recommended cable is used, the RS-232 can be used at distances up to 30
Metres (98.1 feet). Longer lengths or different cables may require that the BAUD
rate be set slower than the default 115200 BAUD.
