Your Configuration Parameters link is down. Here are the parameters you need for this meter:

/dev/ttyUSBx ….use dmesg to get the port no, replace x with this
8 bits
No parity
2400 baud
1 stop bit
Digits: 2000 *
Protocol: 14 bits ASCII/binary, continuous (QM1537)
Number of values: 1
*may respond to experiment but looks fine to me

Get-Content *.log | where {$_ -match “Successfully Completed”}

Thanks in advance.
