If the heart rate data logging is selected (see Section 3.5 ) in data logger PC software, the heart-rate monitor is automatically enabled (the RF icon flashes until linked to a heart-rate monitor).

NOTE
Connect the USB RF access point to the PC before launching the Control Center software. For first time use, wait until Windows has finished the access point driver installation.
In case of problems on Windows PCs, check if the settings for the RF access point are correct in the Windows Device Manager Start > Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager. The RF access point is listed under Ports (COM & LPT) as TI CC1111 Low-Power RF to USB CDC Serial Port (Chronos BLACK) or eZ430-ChronosAP (Chronos WHITE). The port settings should be:
In case of problems on Linux PCs, ensure that the correct tty setting is specified. Check /dev for the new tty device after plugging in the RF access point. If the RF access point is assigned to a device other than ttyACM0, either remove the serial device that occupies this slot (for example, a modem), or change the script file variable "com" in eZ430-Chronos_Datalogger_1_2.tcl located in /home/<user name>/Texas Instruments/eZ430-Chronos/Control Center/eZ430-Chronos Data Logger.
To launch the Control Center software, shortcuts are available in the Start Menu under Programs > Texas Instruments > eZ430-Chronos > eZ430-Chronos Data Logger.
