The SC-USB allows Campbell Scientific data loggers to communicate directly with computers that have a USB interface. The SC-USB is optically isolated, which helps eliminate noise pickup associated with PC power supplies and ground connections. The SC-USB can be used in place of an SC32B interface.

Descrição Técnica
The SC-USB Optically Isolated Interface is used to connect a data logger's CS I/O port to a PC's USB port. Multiple devices can be connected to the SC-USB in parallel. Because the connection is optically isolated, the SC-USB interface can replace an SC32B/USB converter combination. Optical isolation helps eliminate noise pickup associated with PC power supplies and ground connections.
The SC-USB supports synchronous high-speed data transfer for up to 1 Mbps (when supported by data logger). Asynchronous communication is supported from 9600 to 115200 bps. The USB transfer rate is up to 12 Mbps.

The combination of the USB to serial (17394) and the SC32B is basically the same as the SC-USB. Both options enable communication between a computer and a data logger with a CS I/O port.

Many of our more recent data loggers have a Micro B USB port. Simply use a Type A to Micro B, male-to-male cable. Although any USB cable, with the correct connectors and drivers, should work, there is a better chance of success using a cable supplied by Campbell Scientific.
For data loggers with an RS-232 port, only a serial or USB to RS-232 cable (sometimes called a USB-to-serial-adapter cable) is needed. Although any USB to RS-232 cable should work with the appropriate drivers, there is a better chance of success using the USB to RS-232 cables sold by Campbell Scientific.
There are several options for data loggers that don’t have an RS-232 port but have a CSI/O port:
- Use the SC-USB connector/interface instead of the SC32B.
- Use the SC32B with a 17394, USB-to-9-pin male RS-232 cable.
- Use a user-supplied USB interface with the SC32B.
For data loggers with a CSI/O and RS-232 or USB port, it is not necessary to use the SC32B unless there is another device connected to the RS-232 port or there are concerns about low-level noise from a permanently connected, ac-powered computer.

Communication through the data logger’s CS I/O port requires an interface that converts the computer’s RS-232 voltage levels to the CMOS levels of the data logger. Typically, that interface is an SC32B. The SC32B connects to the data logger’s CS I/O port via an SC12 or serial cable and connects to a computer’s 9-pin serial port via a serial cable. When the computer does not have a serial port, a 9-pin serial-to-USB cable, such as pn 17394, can be used with the SC32B. Alternatively, instead of the SC32B, use the SC-USB.
