Introduction
The MinoConnect transmission device serves for remote
reading and configuration of the consuming appliances
respective M-Bus or radio systems either by means of op-
tohead, serial interface or via radio.
MinoConnect partially replaces the cable connection bet-
ween a serial device and a PDA/PC by a Bluetooth con-
nection.
Devices that can be connected via RS232 with SubD 9
Plug to a computer can now be connected to MinoConnect
The further connection to the PC/PDA is then via Bluetooth.
To be able to use all the functions, ZENNER GMM soft-
ware must be used.
Walk-by application: It is possible to receive data protocols
with MinoConnectRadio without using GMM-Software.
For reading and configuration of meters with radio interface
(e.g. wM-Bus) ZENNER offers various software solutions.
Before first commissioning of the device, please insert the
two supplied batteries (NiMH 1.2V min. 2.700 mAh) with
respect to the marked polarity into the battery compart-
ment. Then charge the device about 5 hours.
