17.2 Data Management
Your CyberScan meter is equipped with an RS-232 output port for
sending measurement readings to a printer or computer. To use the
meter with a printer or a computer, the printer or computer must have
an RS-232 part, also. It should be capable of receiving data within the
following guidelines.
Baud rates 110 to 38400 BPS
Data bits 7 or 8
Parity even, add or more
Stop bits 1 or 2
The meter and the output device must be configured to match with
respect to these parameters.
A shielded RS 232 cable must be used. The RS 232 connector is on
the back of the meter. (See diagram page 8) the connector is a
female DB9 style connector. If the output device has a 25 pin
connector, an adapter is required. If the meter and the printer or
computer are to work together, the pin configuration must match. The
meter’s 9 pin configuration is as follows.
