PART 3. THE USB INTERFACE
The USB interface is used for docking calibration, for data transfer to a computer and for
setting operating parameters. The cable required for the connection is a six-foot-long, 4-pin, mini
BM plug to standard AM plug and is available from Bascom-Turner (Part No. UC-001).
Docking calibration is described in a separate manual and by prompts on the dock. Data
transfer is described below.
DataLink4Access™. DataLink4Access™ is a software package available from Bascom-
Turner (Part No. DL-001) for downloading and archiving data, viewing and optionally printing
reports of data logged by Gas-Explorers, and for maintaining the detectors by uploading setup
parameters. DataLink4Access™ can be installed on PC’s with Windows 10 or Windows 7
operating systems and equipped with a USB port. See the DataLink4Access™ User Manual for a
detailed description of the software’s operation.

1. DOWNLOADS
The main menu is structured into three blocks: Imports, Reports and Maintenance. The
Imports block allows selection of three different downloads from the detector to the PC: Readings
and GPS data, Calibration data, and Unit data. Five report menus can be selected: Readings,
Readings with GPS by Unit, Readings with GPS by Address, Calibration and Units reports. Three
Maintenance menus allow assigning a user name, resetting date and time and retiring or activating
detectors. The Admin button controls functionality of the datalink program itself. The data storage
tools enables centralized data back-up and restoration using a network drive.
Readings. Readings are time and date-stamped gas concentration measurements (e.g.
%LEL, %GAS, %Oxygen, and ppm CO) recorded by the detector along with identifying
information such as the detector’s serial number, user’s name, the operational mode used to acquire
the readings, and the state of the pump when the readings were taken. When the memory is filled,
the oldest data is automatically overwritten by the new data.
