Com Port
Figure 6: Tools drop down Figure 7: Com port choice drop down
If the serial port selected is invalid, the software will show the message ERROR – Invalid Com Port when trying to program
the board If the serial port selected is the incorrect port (or if there is a problem with the cable), the software will show the
message << No Response >> after trying to program the board
NOTE: N All information under in the Program Values column is required before the software allows the downloading
of information
Pressing Program downloads the K factor, pulse width and pulse output values to the K Factor Scaler At the completion of
the programming cycle, the circuit performs automatic verification of the downloaded information If disconnected from the
power the K Factor Scaler retains downloaded values in memory
Pressing Read loads the current information from the K Factor Scaler and displays it in the Board Values column of the
PC software
Verify performs the same function as Read, but compares the Board Values to the Program Values and displays an error if the
two do not match
Configuration
Configuring the K Factor Scaler consists of the following four items:
1 Setting the K factor (divider)
2 Setting the output pulse width
3 Setting the pulse output level normally high or normally low
4 Setting the output pulse to use the internal or external pullup resistor
