Connecting to the Monitor in the Field
ADS offers two methods for communicating with the monitor on-
site or in the field: direct connection or indirect connection.
Direct connection allows you to connect directly to the TRITON+
with a laptop (or office) computer for on-site communications. This
type of communication occurs through the ADS USB Serial
Interface cable (ADS p/n 8000-0337). This interface cable consists
of two parts: the primary 10-foot (3.1-m) cable, which includes the
interface box and the potted, 10-pin metal cable connector, and the
6-foot (1.8-m) standard USB A-to-B cable.
USB Serial Interface Cable
Note: A Direct Serial Interface cable (ADS p/n 8000-
0054) also may be used to connect directly to the
TRITON+. However, using this cable may result in
significantly slower data transmission than when using the
USB Serial Interface cable. In addition, the Direct Serial
Interface cable may require a USB-to-serial converter
cable to enable you to connect to a USB port when a
legacy RS-232 port is not available.
Indirect connection enables you to connect to externally-powered
TRITON+ monitors through the ADS ExPAC with a laptop
