Primary Utility Programs

• Comm7 Utility Software
  Comm7 is a Windows-based diagnostic utility created by Watlow. Comm7 can be used to upload/download controller configurations or log data to a text file via EIA-232/485. It covers ASCII Xon/Xoff, Modbus RTU and ANSI protocols used in the 981S (RC900), F4 and model 96 controllers. (Windows 3.x/95/98/XP).

• Modbus Reader 2 (MBReader2.exe) Utility Software
  MBReader2 is a very simple Windows-based diagnostic utility created by Watlow. MBReader2 can be used as a digital communications diagnostic tool for dual packet (handles floating point data) Modbus RTU protocol instruments like the model PM controller.

• ModbusTest                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   ModbusTest is a powerful Windows-based diagnostic utility created by Watlow. ModbusTest can be used as a digital communications diagnostic tool for dual packet (handles floating point data) Modbus RTU protocol instruments like the model PM controller.

• PM Configurator Software
  Configurator software is used to configure, create or edit configurations files or download configuration files from your PC to the PM controller family
