Introduction
1.1 Introduction to the H-5223
The H-5223 is an entry level Data Collection Platform (DCP) system for applications requiring
low cost and with limited parameters to be measured. The H-5223 DCP incorporates a high data
rate GOES transmitter with built in GPS, the most common sensor input options, and a basic data
logger. The ease of use and similarities to the XL Series DCP’s and data loggers make the H-
5223 very attractive to current and future XL users.
Uses, Functions, Features, and Attributes of the H-5223:
! Operates over a wide temperature range: - 40EF to +140EF (- 40EC to +60EC).
! Setup and data retrieval is through the serial port to a PC or a PDA using off the shelf
software.
! Automatic power shut-off after 5 minutes.
! Four general purpose analog input channels.
! Two digital I/O ports for general purpose I/O, counter inputs, or a single quadrature input.
! Complete serial interface provides both a command mode for automated use and a menu
mode for human interaction. Both modes provide complete system programming and data
retrieval.
! Built-in data logging stores the data in non-volatile internal memory.
! Built in GOES radio supports 100, 300, and 1200 Baud GOES transmissions.
! Designed to be compatible with all SDI-12 sensors.
