Transfer Folders from Ascent to Instrument
You can transfer data folders you have stored in Ascent to your
instrument.
NOTE: Before your instrument can communicate with Ascent, you
will need to add it in Ascent. See the Ascent Reference Guide for
details.
To transfer recordings from your instrument to Ascent:
1. Connect your supplied USB data transfer cable to your computer
and the USB to PC port on your instrument.
2. Switch your instrument on.
3. Open Ascent.
4. Click the Send button to establish communication between Ascent
and your instrument.
5. Ensure the Comms Method field meets your requirements.
NOTE: Typically this field is set to Instrument; however you can
select a different option if required.
6. Select your instrument from the dropdown list provided.
7. Tick the checkboxes beside the folders you wish to transfer.
NOTE: Tick Include Baseline Spectra or Include Alarm Bands if you
wish to send this data to your instrument. Doing so will slow the
folder transfer times if you are transferring a large database that
has several alarms and baseline spectra configured.

Overalls on a Route, and the Ascent Reference Guide for more
information.
