Power Considerations
The LS300G-EU uses considerably more power than cellular
modems previously offered by Campbell Scientific, Inc. and
will require a larger power supply, switching power with the
datalogger, or a combination of these to ensure the battery is
not drained.
A power cable included with the modem connects to the datalogger 12V or
switched 12V terminal. Connection to the switched 12V terminal allows the
datalogger to switch power to the modem during scheduled transmission intervals
if desired. See Appendix
A
,
Controlling Power to the LS300G-EU
(p. A-1)
, for
switched 12V program examples. Connect the red
and
white lead wires to 12V
for constant power and to SW12 for program-controlled power, and the black lead
to G (ground). The green wire lead is not necessary and can be removed or
insulated.
When using the switched 12V terminal, the modem can typically be powered with
a BP12 battery, CH150 charger/regulator, and SP10 solar panel.

AceManager and Template Files
Section
4
,
Quickstart
(p. 2)
, describes how to set up the LS300G-EU in serial server
mode using
DevConfig
. AceManager along with template files can be used to set
up the LS300G-EU in serial server mode or PPP.
AceManager is accessed via a web browser. For initial setup or troubleshooting
with a direct (cabled) connection, connect a standard Ethernet (RJ45) cable
between the Ethernet port on the PC and that on the modem. Type
http://192.168.13.31:9191
into a web browser.
Once the modem is provisioned on the network, it may be accessed over the air by
typing
http://
followed by the IP address (dynamic or static) of the modem,
followed by the port
:9191
.
The first screen is a login (shown below). The default password is 12345 and it is
strongly recommended to leave it as the default. If security is of concern, contact
a Campbell Scientific application engineer to discuss options.
