X2 X2 Data Logger
IMPORTANT – BEFORE FIELD DEPLOYMENT: Completely configure new X2 systems with sensors and a direct connection to the CONNECT software in a nearby work area. Operate the system for several hours and ensure correct sensor readings. Use this test run to become familiar with the features and functions.
- Visit the following link on the NexSens Knowledge Base to download the CONNECT software and establish a connection with the X2.
a. nexsens.com/connst - Use the following link to ensure the proper scripts are enabled for each sensor.
a. nexsens.com/conncss - Power down the X2 and remove the USB cable connection.
a. Remove one blank sensor plug from an 8-pin port (i.e., P0, P1, or P2) for each sensor.
b. Connect all sensors to the desired ports.
Note: Ensure that all SDI-12 and RS-485 sensors have unique addresses. - Provide 12V power to the X2 and wait up to 5-10 minutes for sensor detection
a. Reconnect the USB cable to the X2 and open CONNECT. - Once in CONNECT, visit the following article to confirm the X2 sensor configuration and directly download the first few data points.

Overview
The X2 includes three sensor ports that provide industry-standard protocols including SDI-12, RS-232, and RS-485. The center port offers direct communication (serial to PC) to the CONNECT software and power input.
CONNECT is a software utility that enables users to interface directly with any NexSens X2-Series data logger using a UW6-USB-485P cable. It supports a growing number of diagnostic and configuration tools to facilitate system setup and troubleshooting.
