A To verify that the USB Interface drivers are installed properly,
check to ensure the Data Logger Software can recognize a
device.
B When the interface cable is connected to the PC the blue LED
power indicator light should be on. If the indicator light is not
on, unplug the interface cable, wait 5 seconds and plug it back
into the PC.
C Start the Omega Data Logger Software. (If necessary, see the
software manual for additional information on the software)
C Choose Select Comm Port from the Communication menu.
A sub-menu will appear listing the available communication
ports. If the USB driver install was successful, and the USB
interface is plugged into the PC, then USB1 should appear as
an option.
If multiple USB interface cables are connected to the computer
they will be listed USB1, USB2, USB3, etc. Use this menu to
select the proper device.
E The USB interface can be configured to work with most Omega
Data loggers by selecting the proper baud rate from the Select
Baud Rate option under the Communications menu. The baud
rate used by the logger is listed on its label. For example the
OM-CP-QuadTemp communicates at 115,200 baud, so 115,200
must be selected.
