Operation at RS232 Connect the RS232 interface to the devices as follows:
z PC: with a commercially available zero modem cable
z Printer: with a commercially available RS232 printer cable
The cables are available in specialized computer shops.
Set up the following interface data at the PC/printer:
3.3.3 USB memory device
Using a USB memory device (such as a USB memory stick), you can
z Update the meter software and method data (section 4.19)
z Transmit data to the USB memory device (section 4.11)
USB memory devices are connected to the USB-A interface.
Note
Follow the instrucions on the use of USB storage media (see section 4.11.2).
3.3.4 PC keyboard
With the PC keyboard it is possible to enter letters, e.g. to assign names for
identification (ID).
In addition, the following keys of the PC keyboard are assigned with the
following functions of the photometer:
Baud rate Selectable from 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200
The baud rate must agree with the baud rate set on
the PC/printer.
