10 Guide to perform a measurement

•
Under Windows run the « Start » « Program » « TR1500 » command
•
Make sure you have connected the infrared interface (SI686) via a straight RS232 cable to the serial port of
the PC (com1, com2...)
•

Click on the Scan icon
Every mini recorder has an address between 1 and 63. The software scans through the different addresses
and as soon as a datalogger replies to this address, the messages « datalogger detected at address :xx »
appears.
The dataloggers are supplied with the address 1. On first time start-up, the TR1500 software limits the scan
to addresses 1 to 4 (see paragraph : « maximum number of addresses » to change this setting)
The text box at the right hand side of the icon line (8 figure 1) gets filled with the address and name of the
datalogger detected.
You cannot perform measurements unless a datalogger has been detected.
Do not give 2 dataloggers the same address.
