Configure the instrument
Use the setup utility software to configure the parameters kept on each
instrument. When power is applied to the instrument, it looks for a new
configuration. If a new configuration is not found, the previously saved
configuration is used.
1. Open the SetupUtility.exe file that is installed on the PC to start the
setup utility program.
2. Select the Basic Setup tab.
3. Find the Port field on the right side of the window. Select the COM
port on the PC to which the instrument is connected.
4. Click Read Instrument. The utility reads the data that is saved on
the instrument.
5. Make sure that the data in the Instrument Information section is
correct (model number, communication option, firmware version and
communication address, if applicable).
6. In the General section, select the settings.
Option Description
Count Mode Sets the count mode. Does not affect the analog
output of analog units.
Differential—The particle counts shown for each
channel are the counts for each channel size.
Cumulative (default)—The particle counts shown
for each channel are the counts for each channel
size plus the larger channel sizes. For example, if
the channel is 0.3 µm, particles that are 0.3 µm and
larger in size are included in the count.
Sample Timing: Sets the length of time for each sample (default =
Sample 00:01:00 = 1 minute).
Sample Timing: Hold Sets the length of time that data collection stops
after samples are taken (default = 00:00:00).
Count Cycles Sets the number of samples taken before data
