Running CyberComm Portable

Before running the CyberComm Portable program, please ensure that the RS232 cable is

connected between the computer’s serial port and the meter’s port.

A 1-meter RS232 cable, 9-pin male to 9-pin female connector (order no. EC-CA01M09F09) is

supplied with the CyberScan pH 100 meter.

For additional information on the connection, please refer to section 3.4 “Connecting the

RS232C Cable (Only For CyberScan pH 100)”.
