M12+T module questions

Received my M12+T and would like to gather parts to get it running and
tested.

I've looked through the manual for a battery type description and couldn't
find one. Anyone know of a part number for the onboard battery I could
reference?

Also looking for a mating cable/connector for the 10pin header.

Thanks

Jim,

Can't help you with the on-board battery as my M12+T's were the optional external battery types. But as for the connector, I got both PCB-mount and IDC-type cable assemblies as free samples from Samtec. Can't seem to find the part numbers at the moment but can dig for them if you need. Their catalog is on-line.

Regards,
Brent

The data connector is a standard 0.05 inch double row of male headers.
These are common but not nearly so common as the 0.1" type. I used a 2032
coin cell battery and holder I un-soldered from an dead PC motherboard.
Even a coin cell will last its shelf life at least.

You will need to level shift the serial data to/from the MT12 if you want
to connect it to a PC.

I was able to get a sample from Samtec of the connector and a ribbon
cable which I could then split out.
