II.9 External Control Mode
The DV-II+Pro Viscometer can be used in conjunction with Brookfield software, Rheocalc (V2.4
or higher). Through Rheocalc, all viscometer functions are controlled by the computer. The DV-
II+Pro must be set to the external control mode to allow for proper communication with Rheocalc.
To configure the external control mode, connect cable DVP-80 to the serial port on the DV-II+Pro
before turning on the DV-II+Pro. With the DVP-80 cable in place, the DV-II+Pro will present the
screen shown in Figure II-23 when it is turned on. If external control is selected, the DV-II+Pro
will display Figure II-24 and only accept control commands from Rheocalc software.
