USING A LAPTOP
COMPUTER
When a Laptop computer is being used
to check the weather station it is
necessary to use a Serial cable between
the computer and the weather station, as
configured in FIGURE 24 shown below.
CAUTION ! Before “plugging” the
serial cable and computer into the Serial
I/O connector on the back panel of the
Enclosure - make certain that you have
disconnected the 9-pin ribbon cable from
the Short Haul Modem or the Phone
Modem. If you fail to do so, it is a
high possibility that you will damage the
modem.

OF SERIAL CABLE
• Connect the Laptop computer, using
the serial cable as shown in FIGURE
25, to the Serial I/O connector on
the back panel of the Enclosure - the
same as shown for the Keyboard
Display in FIGURE 24.
