Hardware Utilities Serial Port Test Screen
You should see the data displayed both on the TriCoder display and in the test window on the PC. If you do not see the data displayed on your PC, follow the Integrated Hardware Utilities suggestions on the screen, check your TriCoder Setup and try again. If you still have problems, go to the Troubleshooting section of this manual. Otherwise, you are ready to move on with your data collection or custom programming.
