Using Auto Meter’s optional
adapter cord AC-10 insert the
plug into the jack on the BCT-
200J (see page 6) and then plug
the serial adapter into a free
serial port on your computer.
Note:
Most computers are configured with at least one serial port (identified
as COM 1), and some have a second serial port, usually identified
as (COM 2). Check your computer manual to locate and identify a serial
port connector. Even if you have a physical COM port you need to make
sure it is working properly before you proceed. Consult your computer
manual. If your computer serial port is configured for 25 pin you will need
to obtain an adapter from your computer store. If your computer does
not have an available serial port and you’re planning on using
Windows
HYPER Terminal
as illustrated below, you will need to buy and install an
adapter card with a serial port.
