MWS 9-5 Manual

2.3 Start the Software

Start  the  software  by  double-clicking  on  the  program  icon  (with  the  DOS-version,  you  enter 

"START").

Select the interface (COM1..COM4), everything else should be left at default-settings. Then the 

weather software starts.

An error message should appear on screen which tells you that the time of the MWS 9-5-clock is 

not correct. After every start, the software checks the clock of MWS 9-5 and compares it to your 

computer clock. If they differ more than 10 minutes, the pro grams asks if the MWS 9-5-clock is 

to be set. Needless to say, the clock of the connected PC must give the correct time, as MWS 9-5 

is set to the PC-clock.

Choose „YES“ for setting the clock of MWS 9-5.

If your MWS 9-5 holds a GPS-receiver, it provides MWS 9-5 with the correct time, the coordinates 

and the number of available satellites.

The software should run for at least one memory interval so that at least one data file is stored 

on the hard disk. This is important for reading out the datalogger later. (If there is no data file 

on the hard disk, the datalogger cannot be read out as the software does not find a start date.)

If the software is not started, there might be a faulty data file on the hard disk or not enough free 

memory. This causes an abort.

If the software finds a faulty data file, there is an error message. Abort with „j“ then and delete the 

faulty file. Please avoid editing the data files of MWS9-5 (extension .MWS). Many editors cannot 

handle files of this size. Even a little change of these files can result in that the data can no longer 

be interpreted!

(For more details on the software components see the manuals for the respective software).
