Appendix C. HC2S3 Digital Communications
C.4 RS-485 Communications using an SDM-SIO1
Serial I/O Module
The HC2S3 can be interfaced to a CSI datalogger through an SDM-SIO1
Serial I/O Module using the Rotronic E2-05XX-MOD RS485 cable as
described below.
The example program uses the SerialOpen instruction to configure the SDM-
SIO1 for RS-485 half duplex, “COMport 32” at 19200 baud, no parity, 1 stop
bit, and 8 data bits, and serial instructions to send the RDD command to get
temperature and relative humidity data from the probe.

If the Rotronic cable includes brown and white wires (voltage
signals for temperature and humidity), CSI recommends
“capping” them with PN 27749 or equivalent insulated caps to
prevent the possibility of shorting.
