Using the Software

Full details on using the Insight software are contained entirely within its online
Help system: access this by clicking Help, and then Contents, on Insight's
main menu. Then, within Help, click on Contents headings and topics to expand
and read them.
You may also click the Help button in any dialog – or press the F1 key – to
bring up help information relevant to the task being performed.
For use of Insight to reset the logger, see p. 46.
For downloading data from the logger, see p. 57.

Communications Setup

After Insight has been installed, it is necessary to establish communication
between the data logger and the PC. This will normally happen automatically
when the logger is plugged into the PC: connect the logger to a free USB port
and it will be ready to work. In case of any problems, note that the process
should proceed as follows.
1. Using the communications lead supplied, connect the logger to a free USB
port on the PC (to minimize communications problems, connect the lead
first to the PC and then to the logger). The red LED on the logger should
flash five times to confirm that the connection between the communications
lead and the logger has been made.
If the PC is having a Datapaq logger connected for the first time, Windows
will display a 'Found New Hardware' message and the PC is then ready to
work with the logger. If any warnings are displayed about driver-signing,
confirm them (Datapaq drivers have been tested, and were installed when
Insight was installed).
