WaveRIDER 125
5.6 WaveRIDER Menu
The WaveRIDER menu commands configure the M.O.L.E. for collecting data.
The M.O.L.E. must be connected to a PC and the proper communication port
must be configured to properly use the WaveRIDER menu commands.
5.6.1 Configuration Wizard
This wizard guides a user through the communications setup process so the software
and M.O.L.E. can communicate. Communications configuration needs to be done when
the software is first installed or PC hardware configurations have changed.
The wizard steps can be accessed individually on the File and WaveRIDER menus.
To configure communications:
1) Connect the M.O.L.E. to the PC (refer to the appropriate section in the Hardware
manual).
2) Select the Configuration Wizard command from the M.O.L.E. menu and the
Configuration dialog box appears.

3) Click the option button next to a COM port which the PC is set up for RS-232
communications or the Auto command button to have the software automatically
find the COM port the M.O.L.E. is connected.
The user can exit the Configuration Wizard any time by selecting the Cancel
button.
