PPG Tutorial

Studying a Sample Program

The easiest way to find out how a portable program works is to study an existing one. PPG comes with four sample program files. This tutorial looks at the simplest of the four. Later, you will load it into your portable and collect and upload data with it.

Complete the following steps to see how a sample program works:

1.If PPG is not already started on your PC, from the Windows Start menu, select Programs > PT Program Generator > PT Program Gener- ator to load PPG.

2.Click on the Maximize button at the top right of the title bar to expand the PPG window to a full screen.

3.Choose File > Open and select sample.scr from the displayed list of files in the c:\Program Files\PSC\PPG50 directory. Press Open to load the file into the PPG window (refer to Figure 70).
