This meter option initiates a wireless communication session during which the currently stored
readings will be downloaded to a PC. Before using this feature, the target PC mus t be loaded
with Delmhorst’s Universal Application Program and a Delmhorst Base Unit must be connected
to an available serial port. Note that the Base Unit also requires power for operation, supplied
by an AC adapter – included in the PC/KIT. A serial cable is also provided in the PC/KIT.
Requirements:
The wireless communication technology employed in the meter requires line-of-sight access
between the red side window of the meter and the receiving window of the Base Unit. Simply
place the meter and Base Unit on a flat surface, with the red side window of the meter facing
the receiving window of the Base Unit. Separation requirements between the meter and Base
Unit are anywhere from 0 to 30 cm (0” to 12”).
Operation:
1.
Begin by starting the Delmhorst Universal Application Program (double click the application icon, or
chose the program from the Start Menu).
2.
Once the RDM

and Base Unit are lined up and the Base Unit is powered (a green LED should be
lit), select the IR Link option in the Main Menu. The meter will display the message “Linking…” for a
few seconds, followed by “Link OK” when successful communication was established with the Base
Unit. The Base Unit will also indicate communication established by turning off the green LED and
turning on a red LED.
3.
Press the “Manage Data” button in the Delmhorst Universal Application Program. The meter will
display “Data” on the screen and the Base Unit will alternately turn on a yellow and red LED while
data transfer takes place (red indicates communication between the meter and Base Unit, while
yellow indicates communication between the Base Unit and the PC). When finished, the meter will
return to the Main Menu and the Base Unit will, once again, turn on its green LED. For further
details on managing the meter data in the PC please refer to the HELP feature in the program.
NOTE:
The above sequence of events in initiating communication between the PC and the meter is
not mandatory. The Application Program may be started first, or the IR Link may be selected first.
The Manage Data button may also be pressed before communication is started between the Base
