7.2 Parameter adjustment with PACTware
For parameter adjustment of the sensor via a Windows PC, the con-
figuration software PACTware and a suitable instrument driver (DTM)
according to FDT standard are required. The up-to-date PACTware
version as well as all available DTMs are compiled in a DTM Collec-
tion. The DTMs can also be integrated into other frame applications
according to FDT standard.
Note:
To ensure that all instrument functions are supported, you should
always use the latest DTM Collection (from DTM Collection 06/2012).
Furthermore, not all described functions are included in older firm-
ware versions. You can download the latest instrument software from
our homepage. A description of the update procedure is also avail-
able in the Internet.
Further setup steps are described in the operating instructions manu-
al "DTM Collection/PACTware" attached to each DTM Collection and
