RS232C connection
Turn off the POWER switch on the KFM2151 and the computer.
Connect the KFM2151 to the PC using an RS232C cable. The RS232C cable is not
included in the package.
If you are using the KFM2151 as an impedance measurement system in
combination with the KFM2150, connect the KFM2150 and the KFM2151 to the
PC. We recommend that the KFM2150 be connected to the PC using USB or GPIB.
If you are using the RS232C, you must use a PC that has two RS232C ports.
