12 USB Connection
Connect the Heatmaster with a free USB-port of your PC. The correct function can only be secured
at a direct PC port. Check long USB cables (5m and more, HUBs and repeater) later, if the basic
function is checked on a PC-USB-port.
After setting up your personal settings (control-loops), the USB cable won't be needed any
more. The Heatmaster saves all settings/control-loops internally and can be operated
automaticaly thereafter. You can disconnect the USB cable now.
Starting software (or integration in to the autostart-windows-file) after setting up personal
settings, control-loops are also not necessary. The Heatmaster consumes no PC resources
such as processing time and memory. For data logging however a USB cable is needed
again.
ATTENTION: THE HEATMASTER IS NOT HOTPLUG-CAPABLE, IF THE SOFTWARE IS
STARTED!
Don’t disconnect the power cable during operation and also don’t connect it (USB cable
already connected). It could cause damage to Heatmaster or loose settings. It is not
recommended at the moment to use USB and supply voltage to one Heatmaster from two
separate PCs at the same time.
