Port Definitions
o Temperature Port – Reads in soil temperature.
 Example of temperature port connected in HyperTerminal
o GPS Port
– Reads in GPS coordinates.
Example of GPS port connected in HyperTerminal.
o Control Port
– Reads in EC, shutter position, Auxiliary case temperature
and humidity, and shutter steps. After opening this port if no data is
present type S for shank mode or P for probe mode. The letter after E
represents the shutter state. In the case below the shutter is in neutral or
rest. If the case reads R the shutter is in reference or if there is a D the
shutter is in dark. To manually move the shutter type N for neutral, then R
for reference, then D for dark. The shutter can only be moved in this
order.
