Confirm PCS instrument is mapped to the correct
driver: Under Control Panel > Driver Manager,
expand Ports. The PCS instrument should be linked to
STMicroelectronics. If it is not, right-click on the PCS
Instrument USB listing, select Update Driver, navigate
to C:\Program Files (x86)\STMicroelectronics, then
click OK and accept all screens.
Ensure the PCS Instrument is powered on and
connected to the PC. After completing steps 1 Add
User and 2 Add Location from the ! Home
screen’s Get Started bar, click step 3 Add
Instrument.
Select the appropriate PCS type from the Add
Instrument screen and then click OK.
On the New Instrument screen, confirm the
Instrument Type, provide a unique Instrument ID,
and then select a Location and an Owner from the
lists using the … browse buttons. ArtelWare
automatically detects and enters the Client
Computer Name, the name of the PC where the
Instrument is connected.
Select the COM Port where the PCS is connected
and click Test Connection. The Serial Number will
be automatically read from the PCS instrument if
communications are established. Proper driver and
adapter operation can be checked by finding the
connected port in the Windows Device Manager
under [Computer Name]\Ports (COM & LPT).
(Recommended) Return to the ! Home screen and
use Create Schedule and create an instrument
calibration schedule for every 30 days for the PCS
instrument.
