Once you have the computer and power source physically connected through a serial cable setup, simply
choose the Connect through the serial port option on the Connect tab of Power Wave® Manager (Figure 4.1

Navigating Power Wave® Manager
When you launch Power Wave® Manager, the navigation tree down the left side allows you to access
configuration options for the power source to which you have connected. Click the menu item in the
navigation tree to display the available options on the right side of the window.
By default, Power Wave® Manager starts up in the Connection section and allows you to connect to a
power source. In order to access the other menu items of Power Wave® Manager (with the exception of
Lookup Error and WeldView), you must connect to a power source.

Language Selection
Power Wave® Manager has built-in support for multiple languages. By default, the program automatically
detects the language used by your operating system and switches the language of the interface accordingly.
For example, on a Japanese installation of Windows, Power Wave® Manager automatically switches to
using Japanese text and messages.
If you would like to change the language used by Power Wave® Manager, select the appropriate language
from the Language drop-down (Figure 4.4).
