Connecting the

Monitor to the PC

Follow these steps to connect the yield monitor to your computer:

(Windows 95)

Step Action

1 Remove the yield monitor from the combine and use the provided

12-Volt DC power supply to turn the monitor on next to your

computer.

2 With the monitor off, connect one end of the six-foot cable (two,

nine-pin connectors) provided with the monitor to the nine-pin port

on the bottom of the monitor.

Note: Monitors with serial numbers greater than 941000 have

voltages on the nine-pin serial port that should not be connected to

your computer. Therefore, use only the special nine-pin to nine-

pin cable (connects only pins 2, 3, and 5) provided by Ag Leader

Technology. Do not use a standard cable.

3 Find an unused COM port on the back of your computer. If they are

all in use, you must disconnect another device from one of the ports.

The COM port will have either 9 or 25 pins. If it is a nine-pin port,

connect the cable from the monitor directly to the port. If it is a 25-

pin port, use the adapter provided with the cable to connect to the

computer.

Follow these steps to set up HyperTerminal to accept data from the yield

monitor:

Step Action

Click on Start.

Click on Programs.

Click on Accessories.

Double-click on HyperTerminal.

Double click on the icon with hypertrm or hypertrm.exe under it.

A series of popups will appear on the PC display.

6 Enter a name in the “Connection Description” popup

(recommendation: YM2000). Choose an icon that will be

associated with the name you entered and then click the OK button.

7 Click on the down arrow at the bottom of the “Phone Number”

popup where it says “connect using” and choose the COM port to

which the monitor is connected. If you do not know the COM port,

begin with “Direct to COM1”, then click on OK.
