3. Installation / Configuration :
- For using the IMB-232 no driver installation on the PC is necessary.
- For very fast dynamic measurements with IMBus the receiver buffer of the COM-Port FIFO must be
set to 1, otherwise the RS232 interface has a latency time of 400 µsec, which reduces the measuring
data rate noticeable :
Call „Start / Settings / Control Panel / System"
Select register card „Hardware" and press button „Device-Manager"
Select the COM-Port under Ports (COM and LPT )
Press Button Properties
Select Register card „Port settings" and press Button „Advanced"
