Using the Software with Windows 7 / Vista
■ Notes about graph operation
- Opening a Temp / Humidity Graph, Multi-scale Graph or other data file
(.trx, etc…) by dropping it into the Graph window
If you wish to open a file by dropping it into a Graph, it will not appear if the
Graph has been opened using [Run as Administrator]. Please open the
Graph as a general User. In general, we suggest when using Vista to only
use [Run as Administrator] to open the Graphs the first time in order to link
the type of data files (extension) to the Graph programs. After that please
open as a general user and carry out the opening of data as usual.
■ About the Saving Location for Data Files
The application automatically creates a new data file each time an AutoDownload session occurs. Note that when using the Vista OS the [Virtual
Store] function will redirect files from the default folder into which the program
was installed to separate folders under [Program Files] for each user, as
shown below: [C:\User\(AccountName)\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program
Files\(Application)].
（ EX:
If login was carried out using the account name [myname] and [T&D Recorder
for Windows] is the application being run, the saving location will appear in the
application window as: [C:\Program Files\T&D Recorder for Windows\data] but
due to the [Virtual Store] function the actual saving location will be [C:\User\
myname\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\
T&D Recorder (RTR-5)
US].
If the login was carried out from [Run as Administrator], the file will be saved
to the folder as it appears in the application window.

Forms of Communication: A Quick Look
There are various ways that communication can be carried out
between RTR-5 Series Loggers and Data Collectors, Data Collectors
and your Computer, and Loggers and your Computer. For each type
of communication the set-up and procedure varies. Please take a
quick look at the chart below and see the pages noted under each
type of communication for more details.
Communication between
RTR-5 Series Loggers and Data Collectors
1
There are two ways to carry out communication between a Data Logger
and a Data Collector: Wireless and Optical.
See
P.17 or RTR-57U
User's Manual.
Wireless
* To carry out wireless communication you must first register the Remote Units with
which you wish to communicate into the Collector.
(For details about registration, see P.39)
Optical
See P.18 or RTR-57U
User's Manual.

Communication between
RTR-5 Series Loggers and Data Collectors
There are two methods to communicate with RTR-51/52/52Pt/53,
RVR-52A Data Loggers; they are [Wireless Communication] and
[Optical Communication].
■ Wireless Communication
Downloading recorded data from a Data Logger in the field to an
RTR-57C/57U unit can be carried out via Wireless Communication
(Short range RF Communication).
1.
Register the Remote Unit.
Via the RTR-57C/57U, connect a Data Logger to your computer and
using the T&D Recorder for Windows software register that Data Logger
as a Remote Unit.
2.
Place the Remote Unit in the actual place where you wish to make
measurements.
If direct and unobstructed, the communication range is about 100
meters.
If direct and unobstructed, the
communication range is about
100 meters.
Group
100m
3.
Carry out the Wireless Communication Test.
There are instances when communication cannot occur within 100
meters. Please check to see if communication is possible by running a
Search for Remote Units that have been registered via the RTR-57C/57U.
18
■ Optical Communication
To carry out communication, place the Data Logger face down on
the RTR-57C/57U.
Connect to Computer
Place the Data Logger
face down
It is possible to carry out some operations such as recording start settings
or changes, and downloading recorded data via communication with an
RTR-57C/57U unit without connecting to a computer. For details, please
see the RTR-57C/57U User's Manual.
19
Communication between
Data Collector(s) and Computers
■ USB Communication (RTR-57U)
Connect the US-15C communication cable (included in pack) to the
USB port of your computer.
The USB cable is a USB A plug ⇔ USB mini-B plug type.
Please connect to a place with this kind of mark.
USB Port Mark
USB mini-B
To the RTR-57U
USB mini-A
To the Computer
USB Cable (US-15C)
- If the cable is connected to the wrong port, communication cannot take
place.
- Be sure to securely connect the cable to avoid any communication failure
due to a loose connection.
20
