4.3 Comms
Applications
When using a PDA, Hydrological Services have a custom
communications application called PDAComm, which
provides a simple “HyperTerm” like interface to the
MiniLog. Buttons allow commonly used commands such
as Status, Dump, Help to be easily executed, and the
popup keyboard allow any command to be performed.
Data can also be captured to a file, for later “ActiveSync”
transfer to a PC.
When using a PC (or notebook), Hydrological Services have a full featured comms
application called WinComLog, which also provides a simple “HyperTerm” like interface to
the MiniLog. Simply start the application and select the appropriate COM port.
The LED on the
BlueComms should
come on steady, to
indicate a connection is
established.
