Frequently Asked Questions
1. I connected the manometer to PC port and turned meter power on, I tried all serial
ports, and the software always shows"— — — —".
Answer: It could be that all serial ports are occupied by other applications. Close all other
application, restart your computer and run MANOMETER serial software again. The software
will check COM1 first with running. If it shows "— — — —", please choose other COM ports in
the software until the connection is successful.
2. Why there is only (*.AsmDat ) file type selection in the save dialog, and no
(*.TXT) type?
Answer: Because the text file is creating automatically, as long as you click SAVE in the save
dialog, you will get the text file in the same path as the binary file.
3. Why did the error message "Create Excel service failure!" appear when I
clicked ?
Answer: EXCEL software is not installed on the computer.
4. Why did the software stopped automatically?
Answer: If communication is disrupted for any reason the program will stop automatically.
