5.3 MP32 Software Startup
MP32 can operate as a stand-alone program or can work in conjunction with Metretek’s
DC-2000 data collection software. When MP32 is started it will require a user name and
password. If DC-2000 is present then the password must match one of the passwords
from DC-2000’s list of authorized users. If this is a standalone application then leave the
password blank.

After login a window will appear to allow you to select the type of Metretek device to
program (Figure 5-2). Prior to selecting the device, select the “Communication
Configuration” button. In the next window (Figure 5-3) select the “Cable Comm Port” as
the default, and make sure that the selected port matches the port that the cable is
plugged into on the computer, such as COM1, COM2, etc. Then select the “OK” button.
