Special Instructions for High Data Output Rate Sensors

Some versions of iLoad Digital USB load cells and interfaces offer a high data output rate for high speed data acquisition.
When used with these load cells or interfaces, LoadVUE can log data at these high rates (at the

Maximum

log interval setting).

To obtain data at these higher rates, you must change the COM port settings as shown below.

Note: The actual logging rate will depend on the computer speed. It is strongly recommended that a dual-core (or more)
processor be used to log the data for high throughput load cells.

Open the Hardware Device Manager. You can do so by going to the Control Panel in Windows and double-clicking on

System

. On the System dialog box click on the Hardware tab and click on the

Device Manager

button.

When your iLoad Digital USB sensors is connected and correctly installed, you should see a COM port assigned to it as
shown highlighted in the following screen shot (next page).
