CHAPTER 2 : OPERATION GUIDE

Starting the

CS-S10w

Software

If the connection fails

If the connection cannot be established, a dialog box appears displaying the message “No response from

instrument”.

Check that the USB or RS-232C cable is securely connected, that the instrument is turned on, and that

the protection key is securely connected to your PC. If the connected instrument is the CS-2000/2000A,

CS-100A or CS-1000, also check that the communication settings specified in the Serial Port Settings

dialog box agree with those specified with the instrument. When all of these have been confirmed,

select Connect again.

Problems occurring during connection

Connection problems may occur even after the CS-S10w software has successfully connected to the

instrument and established proper communication. In such a case, a dialog box opens and displays “No

response from instrument.” When this message appears, click OK and check that the USB or RS-232C

cable is securely connected and that the instrument is turned on before selecting Connect again.

When the instrument operates on batteries

If you attempt communication with the instrument and the power supply voltage applied to the instru-

ment is low, the CS-S10w may suspend the operation when waiting for the response from the instru-

ment. In such a case, turn off the instrument. When a dialog box appears with a message “No response

from instrument”, click OK. Replace the batteries with new ones or connect the AC adapter, and then

select Connect again.

When using the PC with power supply control, standby settings, or similar

If the PC enters power saving mode when connected to the instrument, it may sometimes not be able to

communicate after recovering. In the event that this occurs, first disconnect the instrument using the

CS-S10w software, then disconnect and reconnect the cable, and select Connect again.
