Cables
OceanServer offers a variety of cables, which come with the compass evaluation kits or
can be ordered separately. OS5000-US will auto detect whether the Serial or USB cable
has been plugged in. (No jumper required)
Standard Cables:
19-00061-24, 24" OS5000-S Demo Kit Cable with Serial connection, Pressure and
3.6V battery power connection (picture below) Demo cable provides 3.6V battery
connection. Cable Note: this cable is a quick way to get the compass running for
evaluation. It is highly recommended that you operate the compass from 3.3V since
the module has a linear regulator and any voltage higher than 3.3V heats up the module
and wasting power and heating up the OS5000 module.

Communicating with the compass, RS-232 or USB
The USB compass requires device drivers to present itself to the system as an asynch
serial port, i.e. COMn: port on Windows. There are drivers supporting MAC OS and
Linux variants on the www.silabs.com web site, CP2101 bridge drivers. We provide
basic drivers and manuals on our web site for windows www.ocean-

server.com/compass/. At this point all compass designs present themselves as serial
port devices at a baud rate, 8 bits, 1 stop bit (ASYNCH).
Using a windows system open up a TeraTerm terminal emulator port to the compass
device. The factory default baud is 19200, 8, 1, N. This change has been made so
Windows OS does not mistakenly recognize the compass as a serial mouse. The baud
rate can be changed back to 9600 using the <Esc> B command
Output Sentence Formats
Figure: Compass output for each of the four supported output formats. The command
<esc>* lets you select the bit mask for the desired sentence format.
The compass is programmed with an output rate and it sends sentences at this fixed
rate. The rate is programmed with the <esc>R command. Values lower than 1 per
second use a negative number, -100 is 0.01hz, -10 is 0.1 hz, -2 is 0.5hz. Values greater
than 0 are in sentences per second, HZ. A value of 10 is 10hz, 40 is 40hz and so on. If
you program a rate of 0 the compass will cease output but still respond to <esc>
commands.
