Deployment with a data acquisition system or controller
To remotely collect real-time measurements from the instrument, connect the instrument to a data
acquisition system (i.e., data logger or modem) or a controller with an applicable communications
module.
The instrument stays in low-power (sleep) mode until it receives a command from the external device
to switch on, complete a measurement and transmit the measured parameters back to the external
device. Refer to the online help for SDI-12 commands and TTY commands supported by the
