4 Startup, Configurations and Settings

Startup

To start the Levelogger PC Software, click the icon, or click the Start button and select:

Programs > Solinst > Levelogger > Levelogger 3.4.0 (or higher).

Communication Port Settings

Note that if using a USB port, plug in the USB cable before starting the Levelogger Software. Once the user starts the program, they can set up the parameters for the Software. Choose the Com Port Setting from the Configuration menu to set up the RS232 or USB communication port for the computer. Figure 4-1 shows the Application Setting Window.

In the Com Port Selection field, select the communication port that is connected to the Levelogger by clicking the drop down list. The program automatically detects the available Com ports on your computer. If using an RS232 serial port (9-pin male DB9 Com port), identify the Com port number and select it in the Com Port Selection window.

Note that you may have to restart your computer after adding a new USB device, before that port will be detected by the Levelogger Software.
