To control the
Pico-pH,
there are several options depending on the users´ level of
experience with optical sensors:
Option 1
: For
initial evaluation purposes
,
Pico-pH
can be operated with the
simple and customer-friendly logger software
Pyro Workbench
, which is
typically used by end-users. This software offers comfortable settings and
calibration wizards, as well as advanced logging features. Several modules can
be operated in parallel within a single window. This software requires an
encoded USB interface cable (item no.
PICO-USB
) for connecting the module to a
Windows PC (see chapter 0).
Option 2
: For
advanced evaluation purposes
, the module can be operated with
the software
Pyro Developer Tool
. It offers simple settings and calibration
procedures, as well as basic logging features. Furthermore, additional advanced
settings offer full control on all features of the module. This software requires
an encoded USB-interface cable (item no.
PICO-USB
