See "Touring DME Manager" on page 21. 9 Build a configuration. See "Building Configurations" on page 43. 10 Compile the configuration. See "Compiling Configurations" on page 61. 11 Transfer the configuration to the DME32. See "Sending Configurations to the DME32" on page 62. 12 Take the configuration for a run. See "Running the System" on page 65. Connecting to a PC The DME32 can be connected to a PC by using standard RS232/RS422 serial connections or USB (Universal Serial Bus). When the DME32 receives a command via the serial port, it transmits a response to only the serial port. Likewise, when it receives a command via the USB port, it transmits a response to only the USB port. Serial Port The PC CONTROL port features a switch for selecting RS232 or RS422. These two serial port standards are virtually the same, the main difference being that RS422 is balanced and therefore supports longer cable lengths. RS232 supports cable lengths of up to 15 meters, while RS422 supports lengths of up to 1 kilometer. Select the one that matches your PC's serial port.

Connecting to a PC
The DME32 can be connected to a PC by using standard RS232/RS422 serial connections or
USB (Universal Serial Bus). When the DME32 receives a command via the serial port, it
transmits a response to only the serial port. Likewise, when it receives a command via the
USB port, it transmits a response to only the USB port.
Serial Port
The PC CONTROL port features a switch for selecting
RS232 or RS422. These two serial port standards are virtu-
ally the same, the main difference being that RS422 is bal-
anced and therefore supports longer cable lengths. RS232
supports cable lengths of up to 15 meters, while RS422 sup-
ports lengths of up to 1 kilometer. Select the one that
matches your PC
