Switch
ON
the instrument and ensure that the side socket is set to RS232 mode and the
computer icon
is lit.
2.
Start the PC software and select Tools
Setup (if the setup dialogue has not started
automatically).

Confirm that the instrument serial number has been read correctly (not shown as “

“Get Serial Number”
before checking settings under the
“communication”
tab.

“Number of records used”
is as expected (refresh the data with the
“Get Log

button) and close the setup dialogue using “
OK
”.
5.
Select the fourth tool button (shows two computers, tool-tip
“Download data”
) and
“All
new records”
in the download dialogue. Use
“Latest specified number of records”
to
recover older data if desired.
6.
When the download completes, click on
OK
then save as prompted.
7.
Use the graphing tool for a quick inspection (select a subset of the records first, if required)
or open the saved data file in a spreadsheet for further manipulation.
