Downloading Measurements To A Pc; Connecting The Reader To A Pc - Cirrus Research doseBadge CR:112A User Manual

Downloading measurements to a PC

Measurements that have been stored in the Reader unit can be downloaded to a PC
using the dBLink3 software. dBLink3 is a simple program that allows measurements to
be downloaded from the RC:112A Reader unit to a PC. The dBLink3 software
automatically recognises an RC:112A Reader unit and allows measurements to be
downloaded, saved as a basic text file and printed. The dBLink3 program also allows
the measurement data to be passed to the doseBadge Database program.
dBLink3 and the dBase Database are supplied on a CD-ROM require a PC
running Microsoft Windows98SE or later. A USB communications port is
required for connection to the RC:112A Reader unit via the supplied USB
Cable.
To install the software:
1. Insert the Disc in the CD-ROM drive
2. Follow the instructions on the screen
If the installation program does not automatically start, run d:\setup.exe program from
the Start, Run option in the task bar where d is the letter of the CD-ROM drive.
Please note that if you are running on a network, you may need to contact
your network administrator to ensure that you have sufficient access rights to
install this software. This software should be installed with full administration
rights to ensure that the configuration of the software can be completed.
Cirrus Research plc accepts no responsibility for the installation of this software on
systems where full access rights are not available.

Connecting the Reader to a PC

The Reader unit must be connected to a PC to allow measurements to be downloaded
to the software. The Reader unit is supplied with a USB Cable which must be used to
download the information.
The USB Cable can only be inserted into the Communications socket in one
orientation. If the connector will not fit into the socket do not force it. Ensure
that the orientation of the connector is correct and that the arrow on the cable
is pointing downwards.
When the cable has been connected to the Reader and the PC, ensure that the Reader
is switched on. If the dBLink3 software program is running, it will automatically detect
the Reader unit and allow the measurements to be downloaded.
If the connection is not automatically made, run the dBLink program from the
Programs\Cirrus\dBLink3 directory.
Once the connection is made, the measurements can be downloaded. For more
information, please refer to the dBLink3 and doseBadge Database help files provided
with these programs.
