1 Product Introduction
SenseCAP ONE is a series of all-in-one compact weather sensors, including S1000 10-in-1, S800 8-in-1,
S700 7-in-1, S500 5-in-1, S200 weather sensors. These weather sensors integrate multiple sensors into
this compact device, monitoring up to10 weather parameters: air temperature, air humidity, atmospheric
pressure, light intensity, wind speed, wind direction, precipitation, PM 2.5, PM 10,noise and CO2. The
sensors use ultrasonic to measure wind speed and wind direction, to achieve high-precision data collection,
which is easy maintenance. The equipment is designed with industry standards and can work stably in
harsh outdoor environments from -40°C to 85°C. The product supports the Modbus-RTU (RS485) and
SDI-12 protocols.

Installation
2.2.1 Device Interface Introduction
There are two connectors at the bottom of the device.
•USB Type-C interface allows you to connect your computer with a normal USB Type-C cable to the
device for configuration.
•The main data interface can be connected to the M12 8-pin cable, supporting multiple bus protocols
Bottom of the device

2.2.2 Connect with USB Cable
Note: The white caps should be screwed down after commissioning, to prevent water from the device!
2.2.3 M12 Cable
The device adopts an M12 8-pin connector, the different colored pins provide power and data
communication (as shown in the above diagram).
When working with the RS-485, you can connect only 4 wires (not using a heating function), and the rest
can be individually wrapped with tape to prevent short circuit

The holes of the cable and the pins of the device connector must be aligned when the cable is plugged
in.
Plugin the cable and tighten it clockwise
Note: the cable is aimed at with the bottom before inserting it into the bottom. Otherwise,the pins are
skewed may cause the communication is abnormal .
When using the device with a heating function, a separate 24V (24V@1A is recommended) power supply

is required. Gray wire #5 is connected to the negative of the power supply, and pink wire #6 is connected
to the positive pole of the power supply.
2.2.4 Install the device.
There are two major installation methods, either mount on a pole with a sleeve or a platform with a
flange plate.
Reminding:
1. When the device needs to add power extension cable, if its length is more than 100 meters, it
needs to use 24V/2A for power supply (without heating function);
2. When the heating function is enabled, the power supply of the heating module should be within 3
meters of the SenseCAP ONE.The distance between the power supply of the heating module and
the device is not more than 5m. Please use the 3m / 5m conversion cables sold by our company.

3 Device's Operating Mode
After installation, you can power on the device, configure it and collect data from the device.
The device has two operating modes, configuration mode, and working mode.
Configuration Mode
With a USB cable, you can check or configure the device’s parameters,
such as device name, version number, and communication protocol
configuration. Product firmware can be upgraded in this mode.
Working Mode
Connect the devices and data logger with an M12 data and power cable,
and then the data collected by the device will be sent to the host via
different communication protocols.

Configure the device via USB port
There is a waterproof round cover at the bottom of the device. Turn it counterclockwise to remove this
cover, and you can see a USB Type-C connector and a configuration button.
Connect the device to your computer with a USB Type-C cable. The computer will automatically install the
device driver. After the driver is successfully installed, you can see a serial port in the device's manager.
If the driver is not installed automatically, click this link to manually download and install the driver.（The
version is CP210x Windows Drivers）
There are two methods to configure the device:
SenseCAP ONE Configuration Tool
Serial debug tool
