4. After the driver has been installed, connect the USB cable to a USB
port on your PC. Windows will detect the new device, and use the
driver automatically.
5. The installation has reserved a COM port for the cable. Verify the port
number, and the status of the cable, using the Vaisala USB
Instrument Finder program that has been installed in the Windows
Start menu. The reserved ports are also visible in the Ports section of
the Windows Device Manager.
Remember to use the correct port in the settings of your terminal program.
Windows will recognize each individual cable as a different device, and
reserve a new COM port.
There is no reason to uninstall the driver for normal use. However, if you
wish to remove the driver files and all Vaisala USB cable devices, you can
do so by uninstalling the entry for Vaisala USB Instrument Driver from
the Programs and Features menu in the Windows Control Panel. In
Windows XP and earlier Windows versions the menu is called Add or
Remove Programs.
Opening a Terminal Connection
The communication interface of GMP343 is RS-232 or RS-485. In case
your device is configured to RS-485 communication mode you can still
start communication in RS-232 mode (for example when changing the
probe setting). See step number 4 in the following instructions.
1. Connect the GMP343 to the PC using the connection cable(s). Refer
to section Connection Cables on page 27.
2. Connect the power cables to a 11 ... 36 V power supply.
3. Open a terminal program and set the communication parameters.
When using the terminal session for the first time, save the settings for
future use.
