To log the functions and setup the PC, do the following:

1.

Connect the sensors as described previously and confirm correct operation.

2.

Unplug the surface temperature sensor, if fitted. Connect the instrument to the serial port on 
the host PC, using the supplied cable.

3.

Switch 

ON

 the instrument and ensure that the side socket is set to RS232 mode and the 

computer icon
