Section 3. CONNECTING A COMPUTER

This section explains how to connect your personal computer to the RayTemp. Once connected, you can view all of the front panel screens covered in the previous section. You can also retrieve the recorded data and view color graphs of temperature and demand profiles. "PTT" is the option- al software tool for your personal computers that works with RayTemp controls. It simulates the front panel and retrieves logged data. PTT software and interface cables are available directly from Raypak. The computer must be able to accept a serial (RS-232) cable.
