6.6 USB and RS232 interface
The installation tester is provided with the two communication interfaces USB and RS 232. The
transmission mode is selected automatically by the installation tester depending on the interface
used. Here, the USB interface is given priority.
The stored measuring results can be transmitted to a PC by means of the
BENNING PC-Win IT 130 logging software. The PC software automatically recognizes the
installation tester and thus allows data transmission between the installation tester and the PC.
