Appendix 5 - Transferring measurements and curves to a PC

Connect the unit to the PC serial port (COM1 for example) via a serial cable (P.N. 615917470)

Check the "serial link/parameters" (for example, by default, 19 200bits/s, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity)
On the PC:
- Open "Hyperterminal" (see Accessories/Communication file)
- Enter the name of a new connection (e.g.: delta).
- In parameters, enter "connect by using" = "Direct to Com1".
- Select the port parameters to 19 200, 8, 1 stop, no parity bit, hardware flow control.
- Validate; then you can re-use the configuration created (e.g.: delta.ht) by a double click on it.
- To save the data transmitted into a file, Select "Transfer/capture text".
- Enter the desired file name (e.g.: delta.txt).
Warning: if the file already exists, the data will be added into it.
