You can also initiate data transmission from the thermometer. If the

application does not establish communication with the thermometer, it will

show an error text message box, and the Find button will flash. Please check

the following for communication error:

• The thermometer is connected to a serial port on the PC.

• The thermometer is turned on and is operating normally.

• Go to the Settings menu and check the COM port number. Make sure you

are using the right COM port on your PC.

• Click the Find button, and the program should be able to establish

communication. The Find button will then change to Go.

Click the Go button, and the program starts to receive data from the

thermometer.
