2.7 D OCUMENT CREATION This document was created using the “Avisaro Document Builder”. Single text blocks are merged into targeted documents. Thus, text blocks can be reused in several places, yet no need to update them manually when changes occur.
Advantage is that compact and targeted documents are available. Disadvantage is that in rare occasions, a paragraph might have comments which do not fit to 100% in the place it is used. 2.8 I MPRINT AND CONTACT This document is provided by: Avisaro AG Grosser Kolonnenweg 18 E 30163 Hannover Germany Web: www.avisaro.com Email: info@avisaro.com...

Please note: Avisaro can not support those third party tools within our technical support via telephone or email.
Jump to: Table of Content The appropriate memory size also depends on the intended use. Due to the technology, memory sticks with an extremely high capacity are typically less robust than smaller memory sizes. The loggers have a "ring memory" that can be optionally activated. If the memory stick becomes full (approx. less than 100MB free memory) the oldest files are deleted - this is a useful setting for some applications.

Heads-up: There are sometimes Micro USB cable which only do power supply, but not data. Those are used i.e. with mobile phones. If the Avisaro device is powered, but no data connection to the PC – just choose a different USB cable.
Jump to: Table of Content Configuration Power 5.3 P OWER UPPLY For regular operation, an external power supply must be connected. Powering the device through micro-USB is not (!) sufficient. 5.3.1 Barrel Connector Power supply at the “D-Sub” version is realized using a widely used barrel connector: The matching plug has the following dimensions (which are widely used and very much a ‘standard’): •...
Supply voltage does not carry an output voltage – thus if the device is powered via barrel connector, Pin 9 does not show the input voltage (internal diode). This is for security reason. If needed, Avisaro can modify the device such that this pin can be used to power other devices.

6.5 D RIVER INSTALLATION If you connect the Avisaro Device to the PC using a Micro USB cable, a virtual COM port driver is installed. If this driver does not install automatically, you can download and install this manually: http://www.avisaro.de/de/40-PC-Treiber.html (German site) http://www.avisaro.com/en/40-ENG-PC-Driver.html...
SING THE OMPANION Click on “Write Config” to transmit changes in the PC tool to the Avisaro device. Click on “Read Config” to display the currently stored values (if you navigate between options, the latest settings are read of course automatically).
7.1.1 Introduction The configuration of the Avisaro 4.0 defines how the devices behave. Settings like baudrate, time&date, Internet access parameter, etc. are variable and can be defined by the user. There are two ways to configure the Avisaro 4.0 devices: 1) Connect the device to a PC using a Micro-USB cable.
There are three ways to update the firmware of the Avisaro 4.0 family: 1. Via USB Stick If the Avisaro 4.0 product has a USB Host port, a new firmware can be uploaded using a USB stick. See details below.
7.2.4 Via FTP server / internet Avisaro Devices can be update remotely. This is a powerful service feature. To enable, navigate to “Data Endpoints”->“CLoud setting” and activate “Remote firmware update”. Please refer to the document “PC Companion” for details, chapter “Data Endpoints-> Cloud Settings”.
