Installing the USB Drivers
Using the
TECSource
via USB is just as simple as using the serial port. In fact,
once you have installed the USB drivers, the instrument will appear as a virtual
serial port that you can use just like a normal serial port.
To install the drivers, simply plug in the instrument to your computer. When the
Add New Hardware wizard appears, insert the CD you received with the
TECSource
and follow the on-screen instructions.
Once the drivers are installed, to determine the COM port number, go to
Control
Panel
and select
System
. Once the
System Properties
dialog appears, choose
the
Hardware
tab then click on the
Device Manager
button. When the
Device
Manager
appears, click on the plus sign to the left of
Ports
. The port identified
as an
USB Serial Port i
s the
TECSource
. In the event you have multiple
TECSource
instruments plugged in simultaneously, you will need to experiment
to see which instrument was assigned to which port. For example, you could
change the set point when the output was off to see which unit’s set point
changed.
