Screen Name

Information Needed

Introduction

Provides and introduction to the EZSetup Wizard along with

instructions on how to navigate through the wizard.

Datalogger Type and Name Select the CR200(X) from the scroll window.

Accept the default name of "CR200(X)."

COM Port Selection

Select the correct COM port for RS-232 connection.

Typically, this will be COM1. Other COM numbers are

possible, especially when using a USB to serial cable.
Leave the COM Port Communication Delay at "00 seconds."
Note: When using a USB to serial cable, the COM number

may change if the cable is moved to a different USB port.

This will prevent data transfer between the software and

CR200(X). Should this occur, simply move the USB cable

back to the original port. If this is not possible, it will be

necessary to close the PC200W software and open it a

second time to refresh the available COM ports. Click on

"Edit Datalogger Setup" and change the COM port to the

new port number.

Datalogger Settings

Used to configure how the CR200(X) communicates through

the COM port.
For this tutorial, accept the default settings.

Communication Setup

Summary

Communications Test

A communications test between the CR200(X) and PC can

be performed in this screen.
For this tutorial, the test is not required. Press Finish to exit

the Wizard.

After exiting the wizard, the main PC200W window becomes visible. The

window has several tabs available. By Default, the Clock/Program tab is visible.

This tab displays information on the currently selected datalogger along with

clock and program functions. The Monitor Data or Collect Data tabs may be

selected at any time.
