SDI-12 Interface

The SDI-12 interface is another way to setup and operate the H-3553. The H-3553 supports all standard
SDI-12 commands and uses some SDI-12 extended (manufacturer specific) commands for setup operation.
SDI-12 standard and extended commands are normally sent from a SDI-12 master device, like the Waterlog
XL series DCP. Table 4-2 is a list of the standard SDI-12 commands and the extended SDI-12 commands for
setting up the H-3553.

Table 4-2: H-3553 Standard and Extended SDI-12 Commands

Note, the ‘a’ character in Table 4-2 represents the current SDI-12 address of the H-3553 and the ‘n’ characters
represent the new value to be written. Each H-3553 extended SDI-12 command is discussed in more detail
later in the chapter.
