Clock Startup and Utility Software
6.6.3
Reading Clock Configuration
When first starting 1094 Utility there will be two functions open:
Open
and
Read
.
Open
selects a
file to upload to a connected clock. Open a file by selecting
File
>
Open
or by clicking the
Open
icon (blue folder).
Read
allows you to poll the connected Model 1094B and download all of the
configured information. You can find
Read
by either by selecting
Unit
>
Read
, or by clicking the
Read
icon. When selecting the
Read
function by either method, 1094 Utility will immediately try
to read the configured settings in the connected clock. If it is successful, it will show a progress bar
for a few seconds and then populate all of the values in the 1094 Utility windows. See Figure 6.5.
Figure 6.5: Reading the 1094B Configuration
If for some reason you get a message that the 1094B Utility software could not read the clock,
make sure to check Settings at the top of the 1094B Utility window to verify (1) you are trying to
connect using the correct COM port on your pc, (2) that you are using the correct baud rate, or
other settings, and (3) that you have the correct cable(s) connected between the Model 1094B and
the pc. Note that it must be a null-modem cable – see table in Section 6.6.2.
