only at authorized service facilities. The NIBP calibration procedures
require specialized equipment (Cat. No. 454-G Calibration Kit)
necessary for proper calibration testing.
Equipment Required

• USB ports: a USB/Serial converter with software is needed to
complete this procedure. Install the converter and software on
the computer as directed by the converter manufacturer.
• Digital manometer, calibrated (accuracy of ±0.05%)
• Plastic tuning tool
• ESD Protected Work Bench

Installing the PC
Service Program
The NIBP Service Program is provided on a self-installing CD-ROM
disk. If the CD-ROM does not run automatically you may need to click
on the CD-ROM drive icon.
Run the auto-installation disk. The program NIBPSvc.exe will be
loaded into the Program Files directory. The new folders CSI\Tools
will be created. A launch icon will also be placed on the desktop of
the computer.
Configuring the Ports
The Service Program is designed to operate using a serial COM1,
COM3 or COM4 port. If your computer uses USB ports instead of a
serial port an adapter will be required. The following adapters are
recommended.
• IOmega USB to Serial/PDA Converter Cable ......... GUC232A
• Keyspan USB Serial Adapter.................................USA-19HS
If COM1, COM3 or COM4 is not available as a free port, the ports will
need to be reconfigured in the computer’s device manager. Go to
Control Panel\System\Hardware
and select
Device Manager.
Select
Ports
and reassign the alternate port or the USB to Serial Adapter to
COM1, COM3 or COM4.
For laptops using a USB adapter
, select
COM 4
or an alternate COM port as necessary.
