Multiple Software Installations
Two or More Radon Monitor Units
The Radon Monitor software only needs to be installed on a computer one time,
regardless of the number of radon monitor units being used with that computer.
When connecting to a radon monitor, the software identifies the serial number of
the connected radon monitor and creates a unique serial number directory for
each radon monitor device. During measurement, the setup template includes
the serial number, which is validated against the radon monitor device
communicating data to the PC.
Two or More Computers
If you have more than one computer, the radon monitor software may be installed
on each one.
Optional Serial Connection
Serial Port Setup
Serial or USB port setup is automatic, unless there is a hardware conflict. When
the radon monitor software is launched and the monitor is plugged in, the
software automatically detects the unit on an available COM port. If the software
does not detect the radon monitor automatically, it may be necessary to select a
specific port.
Connecting with a Serial Cable
If the computer does not have a USB port, the radon monitor can be connected
using a serial cable as follows:
1
Connect an optional serial cable between the computers 9-pin COM port and
the 9-pin PC PORT connector on the radon monitor (Figure 28 on page 51).
