Step

Action

1

Turn on the yield monitor.

After the monitor displays the currently set field (it does not make
any difference which field the monitor is set on), press the MEM
key until “PRINT FLD/LD SUMMARY?” appears on the display.

3

Press the YES key. “READY TO PRINT” appears on the display.

4

Press Enter (or Return) on the PC keyboard. If “Type PRINT,
NAME or START & press Enter” appears on the PC display every
time you press Enter, you have established proper communications.

If “Type PRINT, NAME or START & press Enter” does not appear on the
PC display, perform the following procedures:

Recheck the parameters you set in the Communications dialog box under

the Settings menu. If the settings are correct, try setting a different COM
port in case the COM port you are using is not the port to which the
monitor cable is connected.

If you still do not have communications, check the cable connection to

determine whether you are connected to something other than a COM
port.

If communications still are not established, follow these steps:
