Serial Port allows you to select which COM port the software will use
on your PC. Select the correct port from the drop-down menu.

Timeout sets the time that the software waits before resending a
command if there was a communication error. For most PC’s this
should be set to 40.

Number of retries on timeout sets the maximum retry count before
the software displays a timeout error. For most PC’s this should be
set to 3.

Number of retries on CRC error sets the maximum retry count before the software displays a CRC
error. For most PC’s this should be set to 3.

Note: Some PC’s using USB-serial converters will experience a higher error rate due to the
performance characteristics of the converter. In these cases we recommend that you increase the
Timeout value to 2000 to determine if this corrects the problem. Doing so will reduce the update
frequency and slow down the display or logging rate.
