Test the connection

Use the Connect screen to test the connection. Click on the appropriate station and click Connect to initiate a call to the data logger. The data logger must have 12 V power.

TIP:

The connection time is subject to many external factors. It is often less than 30 seconds but could be up to 15 minutes. Be patient.

If the connection is successful, the connectors icon at the bottom of the screen will come together and clock information from the data logger will be displayed in the Station Date/Time field. If the connection fails, a Communications Failure message will be displayed.
