4. Click the arrow next to Ports to display the available ports. Locate the
COM port assigned to the Cubiscan 325. It will read USB Serial Port.
This is the COM port you will use when setting up Qbit applications to
communicate with the Cubiscan 325. In this example, the Cubiscan 325
was assigned to COM4.
5. Close the Device Manager and the System Properties window.
When it is turned on, the Cubiscan 325 will recognize the cable
connection and, if configured correctly, will respond to a connection
request from the host.
Connecting to a computer via serial (RS-232-C)
If you are using the RS-232 serial communications cable (not supplied),
complete the following steps:
1. Route the RS-232 serial communications cable so it cannot be crushed,
bent, or pulled loose. Make sure that the cable does not interfere with
the scale.
2. Connect the serial cable to the Cubiscan 325’s serial port, as shown in
Figure 14.
3. Locate a free RS-232-C serial port on your computer. Refer to your
computer's documentation, if necessary, to identify the ports. If the
serial port is 9-pin, connect the serial cable directly to the serial port. If
it is 25-pin, use a 25-pin to 9-pin adapter (not supplied).
4. To secure the RS-232 serial cable, tighten both screws at each end of
the cable. It is important that the cable be secure.
Installing Qbit (optional)
A flash drive is available containing the Qbit software program, which can
be used to operate the Cubiscan 325.
The Qbit User Guide, located on the drive, provides instructions for
installing and using Qbit. You can also download the user guide from the
Cubiscan website at www.cubiscan.com
