OPERATION
ORBAN MODEL 8500S
PC Remote software will initiate a connection to the 8500S unit.
A window will appear saying, “Connecting to the 8500S, please wait.” A few
moments later, a new message will appear: “Loading system files, please wait.”
When run, the Orban PC Remote software installer makes copies of all 8500S fac-
tory preset files on your local hard drive. The PC Remote software reads these
files to speed up its initialization. If any of these files have been deleted or dam-
aged, the PC Remote software will refresh them by downloading them from the
8500S. If the PC Remote software needs to do this, it can substantially increase
the time required for the software to initialize, particularly through a slow mo-
dem connection.
When this download is finished, the main meters will appear.
