Connect Sonde
Data Collection Platform (DCP)
is signal output adapter (SOA) allows users to connect an EXO sonde to a Data Collection Platform (DCP)
as well as power it via an external 12 V DC source (not included). Users wire a sonde cable with ying leads
into one side of the SOA and an SDI-12 /RS-232 output and power source into the other. Mount the SOA in
a humidity-controlled enclosure using the following recommended hardware, and never attempt to perform
electrical work beyond your experience.
1 Configure sonde.
Using KOR soware, go to the Deploy menu and choose
to deploy by opening a template or starting a custom
deployment. Click Edit, then go to the SDI-12 tab and
select your parameters and the SDI address. e sonde’s
default address is zero (0). Click save. Refer to Section 5
KOR Soware for more details.
2 Route cable.
Determine the sonde cable routing to the DCP, and protect
the cable from chafe damage and impact.
Route the cable through a sealing gland into the DCP, and
ensure that the seal is air-tight and water-tight.
3 Mount SOA.
Users can mount the SOA horizontally or vertically either
by the screw slots on the sides of the SOA or with the
included 3M adhesive strips. e screw slots were designed
to accept #4 wood screws but may accept other types and
sizes.
If the user opts to use adhesive strips, rst clean the
application surface with a 50:50 mixture of isopropyl
alcohol and water, then mount them in temperatures
between 21° and 38°C and allow the bond to cure for 72
hours if possible before attaching wires.
