e) Software and driver installation

You can also obtain the latest version of the driver and software via the link for the current operating

instructions (see “Introduction” chapter).

•

Please download the “setupVoltcraftPAT” setup program to your computer and install the application.

•

Run the “setupVoltcraftPAT” setup program by double clicking. This will install the driver for the GT-6000 v2 and the

download program. Follow the on-screen instructions. After successful installation, it may be necessary to restart

the computer in order to load the drivers correctly. A “Voltcraft PAT software” shortcut will be placed on the desktop.

• Connect the USB-C data cable to the USB-C connection (12) on the GT-6000 v2. Connect the USB-A connector to

an unused USB interface on your computer.

• Switch the GT-6000 v2 off. To activate the USB interface, press and hold the save button (13) and the On/Off button

(15) at the same time. The device switches on and activates the interface. The USB plug symbol and “USB Conn”

appear on the display.

•

The computer detects the device and displays a brief notification.

•

Start the “Voltcraft PAT software” program by

double clicking on the program icon on the

desktop. The program starts.

• Select “Scan Ports”, which will detect all available

serial interfaces.

• Then, select the COM port to which your

GT-6000 v2 is connected.

• In the example, this is COM5.
• Press “Open Port”.
