Remote
For the Remote, connect a portable gas monitor (PGM) such as a ppbRAE Plus,
MiniRAE 2000, or MultiRAE Plus to the RAELink3 using an optional Portable Coiled Cable
(part number 400-0189-000), or cordlessly with Bluetooth to monitors such as the
MiniRAE3000 and ppbRAE3000. Third-party portable monitors require unique cables

computer. If the computer does not have a serial port, use a USB-to-9-pin Serial Adapter
(part number 410-0210-000) to connect the cable to the computer.
