On-line RS232 Setup and Connection Videos
August 2008


Labtronics Inc., a world leader in laboratory data integration and management solutions has posted 4 videos on their website to help people who want to collect data from RS232 instruments and devices.

The videos provide step by step demonstrations showing how to connect a balance or scale to Excel®, how to setup a “wedge” interface, how to create a comma delimited file using serial data collected from a force gauge and how to setup and add new instruments to the Instrument Library in Labtronics’ Collect software.

“These videos clearly demonstrate how with the right tools anyone can enjoy the real benefits of RS232 data collection without requiring much technical knowledge or needing to spend a lot of time setting up the interfaces”, said Mike DeWitte VP Sales & Marketing for Labtronics’ Device Integration Group. “After viewing the RS232 tutorials, I’m certain many visitors will want to take advantage of the free Collect software trial download to try it out with their instruments.”
