SL300 Install / Download

SL300 Programmer is free software used to configure and customise APCS SL series signal conditioning modules.

Although SL300 will work on Microsoft Windows XP and above, we no longer supply the CP101 USB to UART Bridge Controller in the install package. For systems older than Windows 10 you will need to find this driver yourself.

For Windows 10 and 11 you will need to make sure Windows update has fully been completed if not you will have trouble installing the CP101 USB to UART Bridge Controller driver. This is because the driver is in the optional update section and does not appear unless the base operating system is up to date.

Release 24123. Update User Guide

Correct user guide and on screen SL340 function 'Minor Input Calibration Trim' calibration function.

Added instructions for standard function available on most SL series 'Calibrate Input in Engineering Units'.

As both these functions have a similar operating application and the SL340 has both functions available both have been documented to avoid confusion.

Release 24122. Repair problem SL340

Correct a problems introduced with version 202412 r6.

If the operator fills in the programming screen and programs a SL340 it will work as specified. However if the program is then read from the SL340 the following functions will be reversed: Response, Burn Out, Output Limits, Action, Auxiliary Current/Voltage.

The programmer correctly writes parameters but does not read all parameters correctly giving a false indication.
