The PM710 has an RS 485 interface using a Modbus protocol. I would suggest researching the RS 485 interface first- there are a number of adapters on the market that can convert this to RS 232 or usb for direct connection to your computer. The Modbus interface is what converts the data sent from the unit to something that the computer can understand.
