PC INTERFACE

Data transmission from the instrument to the PC can be done with the

HI 92000 Windows

compatible

software (optional).

HI 92000 also offers graphing and on-line help feature.

Data can be exported to the most popular spreadsheet programs for further analysis.
HI 4521 and HI 4522 instruments have two available serial interfaces: RS232 and USB. The desired serial
interface can be selected from the settings window of the

HI 92000 software.

If choosing the

RS232 serial interface, use the optional Hanna HI 920010 cable connector to connect your

instrument to a PC. Make sure that your instrument is switched off and then plug one connector to the
instrument RS232 socket and the other one to the serial port of your PC.
Note: Other cables than HI 920010 may use a different configuration. In this case, communication between

instrument and PC may not be possible.

If choosing the

USB serial interface, use a standard USB cable to connect your instrument to the PC.

For both serial interfaces, make sure that the instrument and the

HI 92000 software have the same baud rate

and the appropriate communication port.
