94 Using Melt Graphs Appendix CThe combination of excellent image resolution, high magnification, and the power tocarefully step back and forth through a melt provides dramatically enhanced accuracycompared to visual determinations. The ability to display the melt so that several peoplecan view it at once makes the MeltView software package ideal for teaching andlecturing.OptiMelt Automated Melting Point System

OptiMelt Remote Programming 95Appendix DOptiMelt Remote ProgrammingUsing USBIntroductionRemote programming of the OptiMelt using USB requires:• An OS that supports USB (Windows 2000, XP, 98, Mac OS 8/9 or OS X).• Application software (MeltView from SRS, your own Labview, C++, etc. program ora terminal emulator such as HyperTerm) that can access a COM/serial port.• A USB driver for your OS.• USB hardware on your computer.• A USB cable.Virtual Com Port DriverThe OptiMelt USB port is based on the FT245BM chip from FTDI (www.ftdichip.com).FTDI supplies a Virtual COM Port (VCP) driver for Windows and Mac OS. Onceinstalled, the VCP driver makes the OptiMelt appear as if it were connected via a normalCOM port (serial port). Program control is possible using any program capable ofcommunicating with a COM/serial port. The COM/serial port’s baud rate, start, stop, andparity are ignored by the VCP.Windows XP, 2000/98FTDI's Virtual COM Port (VCP) Drivers appear to the system as an extra Com Port (inaddition to any existing hardware Com Ports). Application software accesses the USBdevice in the same way as it would access a standard Windows Com Port using theWindows VCOMM API calls or by using a Com Port Library. This driver is WindowsXP certified and will be installed automatically (may require an internet connection).Quick Start• Plug the OptiMelt into a PC USB port and turn the unit on. Windows will display themessage “Found New Hardware USB Serial”.• If the driver is already available on the computer then it will be installed and a fewseconds later “Your new hardware is installed and ready to use” will be displayed.OptiMelt Automated Melting Point System
