The other end of the field cable is a military-style 8-pin connector (MS-8). Through use of a YSI 6095B
MS-8 to DB-9 adapter, the sonde may be connected to a computer for setup, calibration, real-time
measurement, and uploading files.
This MS-8 connector also plugs directly into the 650 MDS display/logger or the 6500 Process Monitor.
These instruments contain microprocessors with software which provides the ability to set up and calibrate
your sonde sensors in a similar way to that of a terminal interface to a PC.
As an alternative to the field cable for interface to a PC, you may use a YSI 6067B calibration cable for
laboratory interaction with the sonde. In this case, simply plug the proper end of the cable into the sonde
connector and attach the DB-9 connector of the cable to the Com port of your computer. Note that the
6067B will not interface to a 650 Display/Logger of 6500 Process Monitor
For drinking water studies involving only internal logging of data or real-time display of data on a PC using
EcoWatch for Windows software, the 6067B may be the cable of choice.
