I'm having trouble connecting the meter to software. The USB interface seems to be working and the com ports seem to be set per manual, but I get junk

It's been awhile since I used this meter with the USB connection to a PC. However, it did work, except, I think, for frequency, which was junk. I don't know what to suggest except to reinstall the software. I think originally I used an XP laptop. As per the other response you got today make sure you have the correct drivers installed. That is just as important as the software itself. I am now using a W7 machine and have not tried the software on that platform. You don't mention what you are using.

$5.59 cable from bestbuy as recommended below should not work, you need an "expensive" cable which has circuitry inside to translate the signal from computer to the meter. For example this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RVRCV0C You also need to download Alpha Tracker software from abbot website to manage the data.

Check your paper work that came with meter. Other than that, I have had no problem with mine. I set it for what I want to check and it works just fine. Your meter and mine are the same.

So far, I cannot get it calibrated. They are sending a new replacement meter.

Not even sure what a kind of meter that is. Sorry. I will say you will be better off buying one of the better ( Higher priced) units. You can hook the sensors right on the wires inside the circuit box in the house. This one is cheap junk with no support and are not even sold by B&D; anymore.

Sorry, I have not hooked up my USB Connection as of yet. Waiting for friend to come over to help me.

I don't use it. It is to cumbersome to set up and to pull readings from. Connecting it directly to a laptop does nothing. Have you had any luck with it?

The RS232 data from the meter is a serialization of the display bits that drive the segments. It has to be translated into digits, plus/minus, scale, etc. There is information on the Internet that may help. Also other programs for Linux or Windows that may work with this meter. I have not yet needed anything beyond the software supplied so I can't provide specific recommendations.

My advice is ring Fluke, if not, carry out your own question & see what happens, do what you're asking & the meter might likely go to some setting & never work again. My advice, don't play with things you know nothing about. CG

I had no trouble at all hooking up the extension. I may not be compatible with your scanner. Try the other end to see if it connects.

I am currently trying to get it to work, the software loads fine but I cannot get the computer to recognize the sensor. I sent an email to the manufacturer, will let you know if I get a response.

The cable was included with your meter. I/m on the road but I remember that it was rs232 d-type and the other end was ? to connect to the meter. I will not be home for a week, but can clarify then if needed.

Make sure it's the Aviva Plus test strips. . . Make sure your battery is working. . . If this is not the problem you can always call the 1-800 number for Accu-Chek so they can help you reset your meter.. .. Good luck.

I really don't know if it's any help to you, but I've got a radio panel, auto pilot panel, switch panel, & a throttle control, all plugged into a 7 usb holder, I do have a spare 7 usb holder, if I need it, the altimeter panel goes straight to my PC. Hope this might be of some help to you. Chas

Did you install the software? Any error messages? Does it chime when you plug it in to you computer? Did you plug in the controller and carver? Use the same usb ports everytime. Try restarting your computer too. If windows what version do you have?
