Before any measurements can be downloaded, the AnalyzerPlus software must be
installed on to a suitable PC.
Connect your Nova® to your PC using the supplied mini-B USB cable using the USB
connector under the removable rubber connector panel at the bottom of the instrument.
When the AnalyzerPlus software is run, it will automatically find the instrument plugged
in and look for completed measurements to download.
For further information on how to use the AnalyzerPlus software please refer to the
software help files/videos.
