SECTION 6: IN-SITU SOFTWARE
USING POCKET-SITU 4
If you’ve used Win-Situ ® 4 to communicate with your TROLL 9500,
miniTROLL, or TROLL 9000, you already know how to run Pocket-Situ! If
you need help, refer to the Win-Situ 4/Pocket-Situ 4 user’s guide on the
In-Situ Software/Resource CD. A brief overview is given here.
Connect the Hardware
Connect the instrument to the RuggedReader’s 9-pin serial port (see the
RuggedReader Quick Start guide).
Launch the Software
Press the power button on the RuggedReader. Tap Start to
display the Start menu. Tap Programs > Pocket-Situ 4
On your first connection, follow the Connection Wizard to set up the COM
port. Select a Direct connection to One device on COM1 at 19200 baud.
“Find” the TROLL
A Tap the COM port.
B Tap Find. Pocket-Situ connects: First, the
TROLL appears in the Navigation tree.
Then Pocket-Situ retrieves device
information. This can take a moment for
an MP TROLL.
After the connection is made, the TROLL
is shown in the Navigation tree with all
device information.
If you are prompted to upgrade the device firmware, do so.
TIP: Pocket-Situ
4 talks to Multi-
Parameter
TROLLs and miniTROLLs.
TIP: If the
program
launches in
“demo” mode, you can
activate it with the license
key and activation code
from your In-Situ License
Agreement. Or contact
