3.7.1 How to set-up an RS232 connection
If you want to download a stored data log, or output live data logging to a PC, you must first establish RS232
communication between the PC and the data logger. (Download is also possible using USB.)
This procedure provides step-by-step instructions for setting up a HyperTerminal connection, which is a standard
Windows® XP application (not available on Vista). The default location of HyperTerminal is:
Start>All
Programs>Accessories>Communications>HyperTerminal
Setting up a HyperTerminal connection
1. Open HyperTerminal. The Connection
Description dialogue box will appear.
2. Enter a name for the connection (PUF
Download in the example) then click OK.
3. Select a COM port, then click OK.
Note: The available COM ports will vary between
individual PC installations.
4. Enter values for the Port Settings as shown.
5. Click on OK.
6. The ‘PUF Download’ Terminal settings will now
be saved.
Note: When you next start a HyperTerminal
session, you can select the ‘PUF Download’
terminal from the File>Open menu rather than
having to re-enter the parameters.
