Remote control and data logging 
ID-Lite-2.0 is distributed as ID-Lite-2.0.iwe package. It is compatible with the LiteEdit-4.5 (or - 4.5.1) 
PC software – use installation package LiteEdit 4.5 r1 Installation Suite from ComAp web.  
Direct connection to the PC 
ID-Lite can be connected directly with PC via optional IL-NT RS232 interface.  
Use the standard serial cable to connect PC with ID-Lite. 
 
Hint: 
Make sure the grounding system on controller and PC – COM port (negative of the PC DC supply) are 
identical – before the first direct connection. There must not be any voltage between these two points 
otherwise the internal reversible fuse in controller burns out. The simple solution is to assure, that the 
PC supply 240/20V is ground free (GND terminal is not connected).
