For SmartReader Plus Data Loggers
Networking and Remote Communications
Up to 10 SmartReader Plus data loggers can be formed into a network. To do this, run stereo or telephone
cable around the site and connect the loggers anywhere along the cable using ACR’s network Y splitters
(YA-200 for stereo cable or YA-201 for telco cable). If more than 3 data loggers are networked, plug in a power
supply at one end of the network. At the opposite end of the network, connect ACR’s interface cable. If com-
municating directly to a computer, connect the interface cable directly to the computer’s serial port. If com-
municating via modem, connect ACR’s modem adapter (MA-100) between the modem and interface cable.
