User Guide
Communication with the
Cyclops
, from the external software can be wireless
(via
Bluetooth
) or via an appropriate USB cable.
If using the USB port, it is recommended that the
Bluetooth
option is switched
Off in the menu.
Similarly, if
Bluetooth
communication is being used, it is recommended that
the USB communications are not utilised. However, the USB can still be used for
power in this instance.
To capture information from the
Cyclops
, it is best to use the Cyclops Logger
software. For full operating instructions, see the Cyclops Logger software User
Guide.
10.1 Bluetooth
When
Bluetooth
is enabled from the menu system, the
Bluetooth
icon on the
side display will flash until paired with the Logger software.
The
Cyclops
requires a pass key of
0000
, which is provided automatically by
the Logger software.
Once communication with the Logger software is established, a
IOIOI
icon
appears above the
Bluetooth
icon.
The
Cyclops
and Logger software keep the
Bluetooth
communication channel
alive by continually talking to each other. If the communication is stopped in
any way, the
Bluetooth
icon starts to flash again and the pairing process must
be repeated.
Bluetooth
communications are heavy on power drain, and in order to extend
battery life, they should be switched off when not required.
10.2 USB
USB communications are detected automatically by the host computer when
the cable is connected.
