Installation of PCI to RS422 serial driver
Install the serial driver from the memory stick included in the kit. This procedure is self-instructive. Follow the on-
screen messages without doing any configuration changes.
Figure 1 and Figure 2 show two of the messages that appear during serial driver installation.
The serial driver can also be downloaded from the Sensonor support site. Check this site regularly for updates.

4.1 Verification of serial driver set-up
Launch Device Manager: Start -> Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Devices and Printers -> Device Manager.
Verify that the serial driver installation has completed successfully. An example is shown in Figure 3.
Make a note of the assigned COM port value(s) information. This will be needed later for connecting to the STIM from
the PC software.
