2.4 Communication Setup Example Using HyperTerminal
NOTE: If using a 8002-16-2 USB LC-2x16, it is important that the LC-2x16 first be connected
to the computer’s USB port before attempting to communicate so that the LC-2x16 can be
recognized by the computer as a virtual COM port.
Proceed with the following steps to connect with the datalogger using a terminal emulator
program such as Microsoft Windows HyperTerminal™.
1. Launch HyperTerminal (
Start → All Programs → Accessories → Communications → HyperTerminal
).
2. Enter a name for the New Connection and click OK (see Figure 13):
