Opening a Serial/USB connection

To open a serial/USB connection:

1.

Power up the PTB330 and start the PuTTY application.

2.

Select the Serial & USB settings category, and check that the
correct COM port is selected in the Serial or USB line to
connect to
field. Change the port if necessary.

If you are using a Vaisala USB cable, you can check the port
that it uses by clicking the USB Finder... button. This opens the
Vaisala USB Instrument Finder program that has been installed
along with the USB drivers.

3.

Check that the other serial/USB line settings are correct for your
connection, and change if necessary. The default settings
(shown in Table 11 on page 66) are used by the PTB330 Service
Port.
