2.2.7 Serial Interface
RS232
The serial interface with the Rx and Tx lines is a logging interface only. The baudrate
of the interface can be configured. Received data can be stored on the SD card as
CAN messages.
Info:
The serial interface cannot be used to download a configuration or upload
logging data.
2.2.8 Real-Time Clock with Battery
Real-time clock
The
GL1000
/
GL1010
has an internal real-time clock, which is battery supplied, and
thus continues running even if the logger is disconnected from power supply. The
real-time clock inside the logger is required to store the date and time together with
the logged data.
It is recommended to set the real-time clock before first logging.
The configuration of the clock is done with the configuration program (SD card must
be inserted). After setting the real-time clock the logger is switched off.
Older logger under
Windows 7,
Windows 8 and
Windows 10
When the real-time clock of older
GL1000
/
GL1010
is set under
Windows 7
/
Windows
8
/
Windows 10
, the concluding ejection of the logger must be performed manually for
hardware reasons. This pertains to the following serial numbers:
> GL1000
up to and including serial number 028069-001339
> GL1010
up to and including serial number 028081-100105
The affected loggers must be connected to the USB and be supplied with power via
the DSUB25 connector before the time is set. After the time is set with the
configuration program, the USB connection must be disconnected immediately so
that the time will be applied.
Under
Windows XP
, the USB connection is adequate for setting the time for all
GL1000
/
GL1010
; the same applies under
Windows 7
/
Windows 8
/
Windows 10
for
newer serial numbers than those indicated above.
Battery
The internal battery supplies the real-time clock only. The battery has a typical
durability of approximately 5-10 years under the following conditions:
T = +40°C to +80°C for at most 40 hours per week
T = -40°C to +40°C in the rest of the time
GL1010: Battery
Please note that the housing of the
GL1010
must not be opened under any
circumstances, since otherwise the IP65 protection class of the data logger is no
longer guaranteed. The battery may only be replaced by Vector Informatik GmbH. For
more information, please contact the Vector Support.
