Connect your loadsol pro or loadpad pro

novel studio makes downloading your flash memory mode measurements easy.

 
  1. Go to manage devices
  2. Connect your loadtech via USB cable. If you are using a hub, make sure it is a powered hub, not a passive hub. Connect all sensors at the same time, to enable synchronisation.
  3. Click on the search button
  4. Select all the sensors you want to read
  5. Optional: activate auto-create ascii
  6. Click download – this may take a while

Your data will be downloaded, synchronized between all sensors and stored in archive according to the measurement date.

Note: Only sensors that started the measurement with the same smart device and at the same time are synchronized.

If you cannot find loadsol pro or loadpad pro via USB

Make sure your system fulfills the requirements for FTDI4222.

 
  1. Make sure your system finds the devices FT4222H A and B
    1. If the driver is missing, install it from https://ftdichip.com/drivers/
    2. If the device does not show up, use a different USB port
  2. Make sure your USB Port is powered.
    1. If you are using a Hub, use a powered one
    2. If you are using a desktop, make sure to use the powered USB slots
  3. Use a data usb cable

    2. A very long cable might cause problems
