Expand the ‘Ports section in Device Manager. One serial port should
be allocated to ‘Megger Device (COMxx)’ where xx is the port
number.
If the Bluetooth interface is to be used, expand the ports in Device
Manager and ensure that a Standard Serial over Bluetooth link
(COMxx) has been allocated. There will be two ports which look
similar, for example one may be COM6 and the other COM7. The
lower number is to be used for PowerDB Lite.
Ensure that port number xx is
allocated correctly in the

a graphical representation of resistance, voltage or current in
the top left window.
