1. Connect Connect the HP USB/Serial ActiveSync Cable and the MSDC 02PDA Download Cable between the ShockClock and the PDA. Make sure the connections are clean.
2. Launch ShockClock Software and Set the COM Port From the main screen of your PDA tap Start. Tap "Programs", then "ShockClock". In "Prefs", use the default Serial Port setting of COM 1.
3. Download Select “Download” from the “Main Menu”. (With a recording stored in the ShockClock.)
4. COM Test After you select "Download" the Software checks to see if it is communicating properly with the ShockClock. If something is wrong an Error Message will be displayed. If this happens make sure the ShockClock is on, check your connections as well as the COM port setting in "Prefs".
If everything is communicating properly you will see the "Set Air Temperature" Screen.
5. Set Air Temperature The Ultrasonic Acoustic Wave-Guide Transducer is a rugged measurement device that uses sound waves to measure distance (like sonar). Air temperature affects the speed of sound therefore temperature must be input to calibrate the unit. Measure air temperature in the shade in a well ventilated area.
Use the up/down arrows to select temperature. You can also enter the temperature directly. Input in degrees Fahrenheit. It will display the equivalent degrees Celsius.
If you are off by 10° F you will be off about 1%. This means 3 mm off at 300 mm travel. So it is not too critical. Decent, inexpensive digital thermometers are available at home improvement stores.
6. Filename Builder After Downloading is finished the Filename Builder screen appears. It helps you create a meaningful filename based on the information input into the fields.
Required selections are, Front or Rear, and File Number. Optional fields are Rider Initials, Model, Track, Notes, and Suspension Clicker Settings.
The File Number is automatically incremented on every download. You can manually change this. This is particularly useful for ShockClock PRO users to make the file number the same for front and rear.
Filename Builder automatically transfers these settings into the Settings and Notes Tabs.
7. File Save Screen After you finish with the “Filename Builder” screen, you will enter the “Save File” screen. At this point you may edit your filename and choose a location to save to including the Storage Card. The default storage location is "My Documents" on the PDA.
> Multiple Recordings If your have multiple recordings stored in the ShockClock the “Filename Builder” screen will appear for each subsequent file. When the last file is saved it is automatically opened in File 1.
8. Auto Open The new file will automatically be opened up in the File 1 location. To view the file select "View". |
