USB connection
Connect the USB cable (provided) to the LI-3100C USB port, located below the
serial port on the back of the instrument. Connect the other end of the cable to the
PC's USB port. Turn on the LI-3100C. Start the lamp by pressing and holding the
lamp button for a few seconds and then releasing. The computer should find the
new hardware and bring up a hardware installation wizard. Depending on the ver-
sion of Windows operating system running on your computer, steps to navigate the
New Hardware Wizard differ slightly; in some cases you may need to run the New
Hardware Wizard 2 times to install the driver.
Serial connection
The RS-232 serial cable included has 9-pin connectors on both ends; either end plugs
into the serial connector on the back panel of the LI-3100C. Use this cable to con-
nect to your computer's 9-pin serial port. If you want to interface to a computer
with a 25-pin serial port, a 9-pin to 25-pin adapter must be used.
