The HDL-32E sensor needs no configuration, calibration, or other setup to begin producing usable data. Once the unit is mounted and wired, supplying it power will cause it to start scanning and producing data packets. The quickest way to watch the HDL-32E in action is to use Digital Sensor Recorder (DSR), the viewer software included with the unit. ...
