PC INTERFACE

Data transmission from the instrument to the PC can be done with the

HI 92000

 Windows

®

 compatible software (optional). 

HI 92000

 also

offers graphing and on-line help feature.
Data can be exported to the most popular spreadsheet programs for further
analysis.
To connect your instrument to a PC, use the optional Hanna 

HI 920010

cable connector. Make sure that your instrument is switched off and plug
one  connector to the instrument RS232C socket and the other to the serial
port of your PC.

Notes:

• Other cables than 

HI 920010

 may use a different configuration.

In this case, communication between instrument and PC may
not be possible.

• If you are not using Hanna Instruments 

HI 92000

 software,

please see the following instructions.

SENDING COMMANDS FROM PC

It is also possible to remotely control the instrument with any terminal program.
Use 

HI 920010

 cable to connect the instrument to a PC, start the terminal

program and set the communication options as follows: 8, N, 1, no flow control.

COMMAND TYPES

To send a command to the instrument the scheme is:

<command prefix> <command

>

 <CR>

where:

<command prefix> is a selectable ASCII character
between 0 and 47 (default 16).
<command> is the command code.

Note:

Either small or capital letters can be used.
