Sensor connection
Applicable for HYT 271:
Applicable for HYT 221:
Applicable for HYT 939:
Place the sensor as described above into the
adapter board and then connect it with the help of
connection leads provided with the PC-adapter.
Then connect the PC-Adapter through the USB-
cable to the PC or your Notebook.
Internal Data transfer
The communication between PC and measuring
probe takes place serially by means of a COM port
emulation. Therefore, it is very easily possible to
link the measurements to your own software.
(Programming knowledge presupposed).
For the USB UART FTDI 232 used, drivers are
available for Linux, MAC or even PDAs. Further
information is available on website of the
manufacturer www.ftdichip.com
The interface works on a data rate of 4800 Baud, 8
Data bits, No parity and one Stopbit. Further
information on data protocol can be downloaded
