Chapter 4 Loading and Unloading
When the data collector is properly connected to the USB port, the cable
connection icon in the Load/Unload dialog box changes from not
connected to connected and the Dynamix 2500 data collector displays the
message Busy... Communications in progress.
Set Up the Current Data Collector in the Emonitor software
You can have several active data collectors in the Emonitor software. However,
you must select one specific data collector before you load a list. The data
collector you select is called the current data collector. If you use several different
models of data collectors, you may need to select the current data collector before
unloading and loading. If you use only one model of data collector, you can select
the current data collector only once and not change it again.
An icon of the Dynamix 2500 data collector appears in the Set Up Collector if it
is the current data collector.
Follow these steps to make the Dynamix 2500 data collector the current data
collector and select the correct communication settings.
1. Select Tools > Load/Unload.
The Load/Unload dialog box appears.
2. In the Load/Unload dialog box, click Set Up Collector.
The Set Up Data Collectors dialog box appears.
3. The Current column shows a Yes for the current data collector.
To make the Dynamix 2500 Data Collector the current data collector:
a. Move to the Current column for the Dynamix 2500 data collector.
b. Press Enter or double-click in the column to change the word from No
to Yes.
TIP If the cable connection icon does not change, try closing and
reopening the Load/Unload dialog box.
