PC CONNECTION
The use of a PDA to control the MPC allows you to store the data in the PDA's memory and
transfer them to a PC once the measurements have been taken to process them or create a report
"Windows Mobile" Version
1.- Install Microsoft ActiveSyncTM. The program can be downloaded for free at the Microsoft
TM web site. This program manages the connection between the PC and the PDA.
2.- Connect the PDA to the PC. This connection can be made using the USB cable or through a
Bluetooth connection.
3.- ActiveSyncTM automatically detects the PDA and gives the user the option of syncing several
elements (address book, e-mails, files, etc.). Pressing "Cancel" will let you exchange files only,
which is sufficient for our purposes.
4.- Open a file explorer and go to the "My PC" icon. A "Mobile device" will appear. This device is
your PDA; you can browse through it and copy any files you wish to your PC's hard drive.
5.- Once you have copied the file to the PC's hard drive, you can open it with any program you
wish to display it, edit it or analyse it.
"Android" version
1.- Connect your telephone to the computer with a USB cable.
2.- Enable the phone's connection to the computer.
2.- Enter in "My PC" and select the "Removable device" icon.
3.- Open the desired file.
