Communication checks:

SunScan probe to PC

For this test you will need the SunScan probe, and the SunData PC s/w running in your PC to the stage described above.

Now connect the SunScan probe coiled cable to the COM port you have just

specified, and press again.

The CONNECT option will be activated, and the screen will change to report the connection.

On the SunScan probe handle, press the red "GO" button once or twice. Further changes to the screen will occur.

Communication between the probe and your PC has now been demonstrated. Don't worry if some of the numbers on the screen appear to be nonsense at this stage. You will get a chance to set the probe up properly in the Tutorial section.

The SunData probe is supplied with alkaline batteries installed. The power is always on, but the consumption is so low that new batteries will last for up to 1 year. After taking readings with the probe, its battery voltage is reported in the screen title. The cut-off voltage is 4700 mV.

Navigating and selecting options in the PC s/w

If you got lost in any of the above instructions, try again, using the following general principles for moving around the screen:

a)Select an option by moving the highlighted cursor to it. Use the arrow keys or the Tab key to move between options. Half-tone highlights indicate that options are not available at that moment.

b)Accept the selected option by pressing or Return or Enter

c)Escape from, or cancel, a selection by pressing Esc

Menus at the top of the screen can be selected by pressing Alt + the highlighted letter key (or using the arrow keys), otherwise the options at the bottom of the screen are selected.

If you are familiar with the concept of "hot-keys", you will find them listed in the menu dialog boxes, and you can use them straight away.

To exit or quit SunData

Press Alt+F then X, or Alt+Q then Q

The program will return you to the DOS prompt.

Workabout to PC

For the moment, if the Workabout and SunScan probe have responded to the Getting Started operations, then the preliminary tests are complete.

Later on in the Tutorial section you will learn how to transfer data files from the Workabout to the PC. If you ever need to transfer the program files from the PC to the Workabout, this is dealt with in the appendices.
