Factory-configured system
:
first connect the battery of the base unit
and check the
clock setting. Only after this operation, connect the battery of the data loggers, so that the
clock can be synchronized with the updated clock of the base unit at startup.
•
Not configured system
: at startup, data loggers don’t synchronize the clock with that of the
base unit, consequently it is not important to power the base unit as first.

ONNECTING
HD35AP…
BASE UNIT TO YOUR
PC
All the versions of the HD35AP... base unit can be connected to the USB port of a PC through
the
CP23
cable. The mini-USB connector of the base unit is located in the bottom part of the
housing. In this connection mode, the base unit is powered through the USB port of the PC.
Fig. 3.3: connecting the base unit to your PC
The connection through the CP23 cable doesn’t require the installation of USB drivers: when the
base unit is connected to the PC, Windows® operating system automatically recognizes the unit
as an HID (Human Interface Device) device and uses the drivers already included in the operat-
ing system.
