Software Operation

3.2.1

Connection Settings

In most cases, simply clicking the “Connect” button will auto-detect all settings necessary to connect to the device. 
However, if changes to the connection settings need to be made, click the settings icon next to the Connect button 
and adjust the settings in the drop-down panel that appears.

For the M21125/15, make sure that “I

2

C” is selected.

The software may also be operated without a device plugged in by turning “Simulate Connection” on. This is useful 
primarily for getting familiarized with the interface or reviewing the available device settings.
