The SDM-SIO4 has four configurable serial RS-232 ports that communicate with intelligent serial sensors, display boards, printers, satellite links, and other serial devices. Once programmed, the SDM-SIO4 communicates with devices connected in parallel with the datalogger's own program sequence, thus making the complete datalogging system faster and more efficient. A multi-tasking operating system allows concurrent transmission and receipt of data on all ports.
