Using the service port
The service port is used to download data files from the controller and install new versions of
controller and sensor firmware. To download data and update software, use the service port in
combination with DataCom and a service cable (LZX887).
Using DataCom
When using the service port, it is necessary to use DataCom. DataCom is a PC Application Utility
that downloads data log and event log files from the controller and installed sensors. Files are
downloaded from the controller through the controller service port or they can be placed on a Secure
Digital Memory (SD) card installed in the controller. In addition, DataCom is used to upload software
for the controller and sensors. The DataCom application must be installed on a PC to read the files.
Refer to the DataCom manual for more information on how to use the application. The DataCom
manual, software updates and other downloadable resources are available at
