Signet PC COMM Tool
Important:
If the 9900 Transmitter has not been confi gured prior to communicating with the PC COMM tool, the transmitter will be
in a unique, factory, state. In this state the user will be required to select a measurement sensor type prior to continuing.
On all screens Read, Write, Save, Load, and Default buttons
will appear.
Read
causes the application to load the data from the 9900
transmitter and update the software’s display. NOTE: This will
overwrite any changes made in the PC COMM software since
the last Write.
Write
causes the data entered to be written to the 9900
transmitter. When your desired changes have been entered
in the PC COMM screens, press WRITE to load your new
settings into the 9900 transmitter.
Save
will save the entire PC COMM confi guration, as presently
displayed in the application, to a specifi ed fi le. (You will be
asked to provide a fi le name.)
Load
will load a previously saved 9900 confi guration fi le.
NOTE:
The fi le must be a 9900 confi guration fi le. The program
will verify that the user-selected fi le is the correct type.
Default
will reset all data and all application screens to a
factory default condition. A confi rmation dialog box will be
presented with a warning that all confi guration information will
be erased. Click Write to reset the 9900 to the default values.
NOTE: Default
will not change the input type.

tabs to choose the desired menu for the selected sensor. All
variables and options available in
the 9900 menus are represented on
PC COMM (except functions such as
calibration that require a sensor to be
connected to the 9900 transmitter).

details pertaining to specifi c
settings for each sensor type and
menu item.
When confi guration is complete close
the PC COMM software. Disconnect
power from the 9900. Disconnect
the PC COMM tool from the 9900 and reconnect the sensor or
reinstall the Direct Conductivity/Resistivity Module. Reconnect
power to the 9900.
