4 Using ECH2O Utility
4.1 Introduction
ECH2O Utility provides a user-friendly interface for configuring and
downloading the EM5b logger. After installing the program (see
Chapter 3 for instructions), launch the program. You then see the
Main screen. Here you can set all logger configuration parameters
with visual controls. Once connected, the Main screen looks similar
to the picture below.

At the top of the program window is a toolbar for interacting with
the Em5b. To the left is a battery indicator. To the right are the
"Connect Via" menu, where you can select a COM port; the Connect
button (which displays "Disconnect" when you are connected to an
Em5b); the Download button, which downloads data saved on the
Em5b onto our computer; and the Scan button, which scans all of
the sensors connected to each port on the Em5b, and returns a real-
time reading. These chapter describes these functions in further
detail. Below are the most common tasks that can be performed
with ECH2O Utility, explained in detail.
