Communication
Connect Sonde to Computer
via USB Cable
1. First, install the KOR™ soware on your
computer. Follow the prompts to install
the new hardware and drivers.
2. Plug in the USB Signal Output Adapter
to the top of the sonde.
3. Plug in the small end of the USB cable to
the top of the adapter and the large end
in a standard USB port on the computer.
The USB adapter provides a hardwired
communicaons link to a PC as well as
providing power to the sonde.
via Bluetooth
®
A computer must be equipped with an
internal Bluetooth radio or use a Bluetooth
dongle to establish a wireless connecon to
the sonde.
Acvate Bluetooth by holding the included
sensor tool with magnet at the magnec
acvaon area on sonde. Once acvated,
the blue light will be on. The soware will
automacally pair the instrument to
your PC.
Troubleshooting
Establish Bluetooth link (Windows OS)
1. Check your version of Windows for the
proper method to pair a Bluetooth device
to your PC.
2. When prompted, locate the sonde from
the list. The sonde name should begin
with YSI.
3. Select “Enter the device’s pairing code,”
and click Next. Enter the code 9876.
Click “Next.”
5. Select Finish.
Discover the Sonde in KOR™
Upon startup of the soware KOR™ will
search for and discover the acvated
sonde and request to connect to it. Once
connected via Bluetooth, the blue light on
the sonde will blink.
Connect Sonde to EXO Handheld
via Field Cable
Press in the male 6-pin connector on the
cable to the top of the sonde. Press in the
female 6-pin connector on the cable to the
boom of the handheld, then screw down
the retaining collars on each end.
Install Batteries
The EXO1 and EXO3 Sondes use two (2)
D-cell alkaline baeries and the EXO2 Sonde
uses four (4) D-cell alkaline baeries as the
recommended power source. For the EXO2
s
,
and at the discreon of the user for EXO1,
EXO2, and EXO3, external power sources
may be used.
Alternavely, the sonde may use
rechargeable NiMH D-cell baeries (not
provided). We recommend a NiMH D-cell
baery with a minimum rang of 10,000
milliamp hours. However, due to variaons
in manufacturer capacity and discharge
curves, deployment life cannot be esmated
when using rechargeable baeries.
1. Remove the baery cover from
the sonde:
EXO1: Twist the blue baery cover
counter-clockwise to unscrew, li up to
remove. Use included wrench to loosen,
if necessary.
EXO2 / EXO3: Unscrew and remove
baery cap. Use included wrench to
loosen, if necessary.
2. Insert the baeries with negave (-)
terminals facing down toward
the probes.
3. Replace the baery cover or cap and
ghten unl snug. Do not overghten.
