OrderableCS I/O 2 GB Flash Memory Drive with USB Interface
Overview
The SC115 is a lightweight, portable 2 GB device that allows users to augment their onsite data storage or to transport data between a Campbell Scientific data logger and PC. The SC115 can also be used as a USB-to-CS I/O synchronous device communications (SDC) adapter that supports direct communication between a data logger and a PC equipped with a USB port.
Key Advantages
Technical Description
The SC115 consists of electronics protected in a custom molded package. It has a USB 2.0 compatible connector for attaching it to the PC's USB port, and a CS I/O 9-pin connector for attaching it to a data logger's CS I/O port. The SC115 may be connected directly to a PC or data logger, or connected through the supplied extension cables.
The SC115 is typically used as an external data storage device, but may also be used as a USB-to-CS I/O synchronous device communications (SDC) adapter. As a USB-to-CS I/O adapter, the SC115 supports direct communication between a Campbell Scientific data logger and a PC equipped with a USB port. However, the SC115 is not electronically isolated, and therefore is better for temporary communications with a battery-powered PC. Another device, the SC-USB, also supports direct communications with a PC's USB port, but is optically isolated.
USB drivers for the SC115 must be installed before connecting the SC115 to a PC for configuration or as a USB-to-CS I/O adapter. The driver can be installed from the Device Configuration Utility device page by clicking the "Install the Device Driver" link.

Data Logger Considerations
Connections
The SC115 has a CS I/O port for attachment to the data logger and a USB port for attachment to a PC. You can connect the SC115 to the PC or data logger either directly or via the supplied cables. (Only one SC115 can be connected to a data logger at a time.) An SC12 CS I/O cable and a USB cable are shipped with the SC115.
Programming
CRBasic TableFile instruction is used to store data to the drive. Our Device Configuration (DevConfig) utility can be used for field configuration, OS download, and setting the SDC address. CRBasic and DevConfig are included in LoggerNet and PC400 Datalogger Support Software.
