PC Vision
™
Abstract
PC Vision
™ is the companion windows application for your Bravo EX2 Analyzer. Besides allowing for
remote operation of your BRAVO EX2, it also contains tools and utilities to help you get the most out
of your instrument.
Installing PC Vision
PC Vision
™ will support Microsoft Windows 7 and higher, and communicates with your instrument via
a USB connection. A direct connection to your PC is recommended; the qualities of certain USB
Extension Hubs have been known to cause communications issues with the unit.
To install, simply run the installation package (SETUP.EXE), and follow the installation prompts. The
default location for your user files is:
\Users\<username>\My Documents\ AEATechnology\PC-Vision
All of your pertinent user data, downloads, traces, etc. will be stored there.
Running PC-Vision
Start the PC-Vision Application by either clicking on the icon on your desktop, or by selecting it from
the start menu.
When the PC-Vision application is started, it will detect the instrument if it is powered ON, and
connected to a USB port. If the BRAVO EX2 is not plugged in when the PC Vision application is
started, the application will sense your unit when you attach it with a USB cable to any USB port on
your PC. The following dialog box will be displayed when the connection is being initialized:
The PC-Vision application will signal to you that it has successfully detected and attached your
instrument by indicating the instruments' model number (marked 'Unit'), and changing the status light
from red to green, as shown in the screen shot below:
If the BRAVO EX2 remains disconnected, you will still be able to load and view previously stored data
traces.
