1. Overview of the DM32 Configurator

The user can run the DM32 Configurator on any computer, laptop or tablet running a full version of
Windows (XP SP2 or later).

The DM32 Configurator program discovers one or more gauges in the Retrotec DM32 family of gauges
connected to the computer with a USB cable.

Once the user selects a gauge from list of discovered gauges, the software can:


1. Read and update the Network settings on the selected gauge.
2. Read and change some settings on the gauge for which there is no user interface on the gauge.
3. Update the gauge with new firmware when new features are released by the manufacturer.

The DM32 Configurator lets the user set up networking parameters and download them to the gauge, so
that the gauge can then join secure or non-secure WiFi or wired networks.

a) If you are connecting your gauge to a Wired network, parameters for wired networking can

be set up directly on gauge using [Settings]>>[Network], or with the DM32 Configurator.

b) If you want your gauge to connect to a WiFi network which requires a password, the

password for the secure WiFi network can ONLY be set up with the DM32 Configurator.

c) If you want your gauge to connect to a WiFi network without a password, parameters for

the non-secure WiFi network can be set up directly on the gauge using
[Settings]>>[Network], or with the DM32 Configurator.
