  • Connect your device to Data Link PC software

  • Download selected sessions from your device to your PC

📝 The video shows an XRS2 EID stick reader, but the process is the same for all Tru-Test devices.

1. Plug your Tru-Test device to your computer and use Tru-Test Data Link PC software.

2. Select the session files you want and click the Download icon or Files > Get information off the device.

3. Choose Get Selected Session files and then select Save Selected Sessions files to this PC and Next.
