Successful Connection
When you successfully connect to your Grad-13 device, the Visual Grad-13 application window
options will change as shown in Figure 12:
This window now gives the options to start a scan, display graphs or disconnect from the Grad-
13.
Note: Connections can fail if the Grad-13 device is not connected, connected to the wrong
connection, not powered, or incorrectly configured. This will lead to an error message
when attempting to connect.
8.2.4.2. Starting a scan
Once a Grad 13 is connected, a scan can be started. Scans are saved to .pct files in the Grad 13
Log directory (a shortcut to this is placed on the desktop by default during the installation). Scan
files are numbered sequentially, and created each time a scan is started.
Click 'Start Scan' to start a scan, as shown in Figure 13.
