The SC105 is a CS I/O to RS-232 adapter used to connect a Campbell Scientific datalogger to an RS-232 DCE device. Common DCE devices used with the SC105 include cellular modems, radios, and smart serial sensors. The SC105 is compatible with any datalogger that has a CS I/O port. Multiple SC105 interfaces can be connected to a single datalogger CS I/O port.

The SC105 provides internal buffering that temporarily stores data. This buffering allows the data logger and DCE device to operate at different baud rates by storing the data received from the faster device until the slower device is ready to receive it. Internal buffering also ensures that no data is lost during transmission.

Three cables (13657 Null Modem Cable, SC12 CS I/O Data Cable, and 10873 Serial Data Cable) are shipped with the SC105. The 13657 cable is used to program the device via a computer. The SC12 cable connects the SC105 to the data logger, and the 10873 cable connects the SC105 to the RS-232 DCE device. An SC12R-6 cable (purchased separately) may be used instead of the SC12 cable if a longer cable is required.
The 16987 mounting kit is available for attaching the SC105 to the backplate of an environmental enclosure.
Note: When using an SC105 with OS version 4 or newer with a mixed-array data logger, the data logger operating system should be updated to the latest released version.
Current SC105 firmware. Requires the Device Configuration Utility and a 9-pin socket (female) to socket (female) NULL modem cable.
A software utility used to download operating systems and set up Campbell Scientific hardware. Also will update PakBus Graph and the Network Planner if they have been installed previously by another Campbell Scientific software package.
Supported Operating Systems:
Windows 11 or 10 (Both 32 and 64 bit)
