Assembling the equipment needed to confi gure the CPT (HLPRG)
Connecting the CPT to the PC
Connect the RS-232 end of the cable to the PC’s COM
port.
See Table 3 for information on the necessary
equipment
Installing the Confi guration Software
Refer to Table 3 for the equipment needed.
1. I
nsert the
Moore Industries Interface Solution
PC Confi guration Software
CD into the CD
drive of the PC. Access the CD and open the
“CPA CPT PC Confi guration Software” folder.
2.
Double-click the installation program located
in the folder. Follow the prompts to correctly
install the program
.
Once the Confi guration Program is installed on the
PC, the CPT can be connected to equipment to
simulate input and monitor output. You can then
change the transmitter’s operating parameters.
No Transmitter Needed
It is not necessary to connect the transmitter to a PC
to create confi guration fi les using the software. The
Confi guration Program can be run without connecting
a transmitter, and
most
parameters can be set
without benefi t of input from a CPT.
This makes it easy to create a set of operating
parameters, save them to disk, and download them to
one or more transmitters at a later time.
The CPT
must
be connected to the PC in order to:
trim input, trim output, assign a tag, perform a loop
test, receive (via download) a confi guration fi le, and
save the confi guration fi le from the transmitter’s
memory.
