transducers to make sure connections are
secure and wired correctly.

where this top transducer pair is not
submerged in the process fluid.

2.2.2
Unable to connect direct serial or external serial modem
If you are using Windows
®
XP, Windows
®
Vista or Windows
®
7 make sure that you do not
have more than one modem driver installed to the same COM port. Typically this will only
be necessary if you use one COM port to talk direct (serial communications) and use the
same COM port to connect to an external modem. This is an apparent limitation in
Microsoft’s
®
Dial-up Networking. If more than one modem driver is installed for a
particular COM port, Dial-up Networking will always use the last driver installed regardless
of what is selected. The only work around is to only install one modem driver per COM port
