Connect thermometer to computer using USB cable and turn on. Click
“Connect”.

If the connection is successful, “Success” will appear in green. (“Fail” will
change to “Success”)

When this step is completed the connection is active and the temperature
data can be captured in real time.
Note:
1) Once the software is opened it will automatically find the appropriate COM
port. If the COM port displayed by the software is different from the computer
resource manager, it will not work properly. Manually set the serial port to the
corresponding serial port of the resource manager.
2) After the thermometer is turned off and then on again, click “Disconnect”
and “Connect”, or close software and open again. This step is necessary to
refresh the connected serial port so the data will display properly.
