2.2 miniWIPERControl 

Begin program operation by clicking on 
miniWIPERControl.jar. Software presents the 
screen to the left (shown after miniWIPER is 
connected):   

The miniWIPER must be connected to USB at this 
time. When correctly connected the miniWIPER 
LED will display a constant green light. 

Click the Connect Button. The software will contact 
the wiper. If the connection is successful, the button 
will turn green and display “Connected” as seen on 
the left. The Serial Number and other parameters 
will be filled in from information taken from the 
miniWIPER. 

If the HOSTcomputer is connected to the internet, 
the current difference between an internet time 
server’s time and the miniWIPER internal clock will 

be displayed. And, if more than a week has passed since time was last set, the miniWIPER clock will 
be set and a check mark icon will appear. If the HOSTcomputer is not connected to the internet no 
time services will occur. 

The current miniWIPER wipe interval will be displayed next to the Set Wipe Interval button. If this 
interval is acceptable the interval need not be set. 

To set the interval, enter an interval not less than 1 hour and not greater than 24 hours. Click the Set 
Sample Interval button. Shorter and longer intervals are available. Contact PME. 

Click the test wiper button to operate the wiper motor briefly. The wiper will make one complete wipe 
over a period of about 30 seconds. (A complete wipe is rotation in one direction only. Note that 
miniWIPER occasionally does a calibration wipe in addition to a scrub wipe. A calibration wipe is a 
wipe to both rotational endpoints without scrubbing.) 

End miniWIPER Control by closing the window. Unplug miniWIPER USB connection. 

Upon disconnection of the USB cable the miniWIPER will begin wiping or remain halted as indicated 
by the position of the Wiper Control Switch.
