Overview

The FM300 Front Panel Software package accompanies every Vector Magnetometer we deliver. The FM300 Front Panel software provides the user with a convenient means for controlling the FM300 through an RS232 COM port of a PC running under the Microsoft Windows^® 95/98 or Windows NT^® 4.0 operating system. The package consists of two programs: the FM300 Front Panel program and the FM300 Network Server.

Use the FM300 Network Server to automatically log magnetometer data to a host PC and make the data available to anyone connected to the host over the Internet.

Download the FM300 Front Panel software package and check out its capabilities by connecting to the FM300 Network Server that we have running on our web site.
