CHAPTER 4
OPERATION
This chapter contains information that is needed to operate the HMT130.
Using the Service Port
HMT130 motherboard has an 8-pin RJ-45 connector for service use.
Service port uses RS-232 signaling levels. Vaisala offers an optional
USB cable (Vaisala order code 219685) for connecting the transmitter to
your PC.
NOTE
The service port is intended for short-term use such as calibration. For
permanent installation, use the analog output or the RS-485 serial line.
Connecting a PC to the service port may cause erroneous analog output
because of a possible ground loop. Use the service port for service only,
and disconnect the PC after the service operation.
The cable can also provide operation power to the transmitter, so the
wires at the screw terminals need not to be connected in order to operate
the transmitter.
If you have not used the HMT130 USB cable before, install the driver
that came with the cable. Refer to section Installing the Driver for the
USB Cable below for detailed instructions.
Installing the Driver for the USB Cable
Before taking the USB cable into use, you must install the provided USB
driver on your PC. When installing the driver, you must acknowledge
any security prompts that may appear. The driver is compatible with
Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows
Vista.
1. Check that the USB cable is not connected. Disconnect the cable if
you have already connected it.
