communication software: WinCT-Moisture
WinCT-Moisture enables easy transfer of measurement data via RS-232C from A&D MS/MX/MF/M
L
heating and drying moisture analyzers to PCs for storage and analysis.
WinCT-Moisture (CD-ROM) is included with the MS and MX, but it can also be obtained as Accessory No.

X-MX-42.
WinCT-Moisture Windows data transmission software includes the following four applications along with
measurement data of 100 typical samples.

RsFig --- Graphically displays moisture content measurement processes and results
RsTemp --- Automatically determines the heating temperature of samples
RsCom --- Sends and receives data
RsKey --- Transfers data

Software Details
RsFig receives data from the MS/MX/MF/ML via RS-232C and displays the data in
graphs in real time. Users can observe the entire change process of the moisture conten
t
and grasp the process in which the change in moisture content drops off (the
convergence process).
Multiple graphs can be overlaid so data from measurements under different heating
temperatures can be shown in a single graph. Furthermore, data can be saved as CS
V
files. These features make this software very useful for examining conditions o
f
measuring moisture content.
RsTemp automatically determines a suitable heating temperature for measuring sample
moisture content by raising the heating temperature of the MS/MX/MF/ML by 20 ºC every
5 minutes, from 100 ºC to 200 ºC. The heating temperature can be automatically
determined in about 30 min. (The parameters for the heating pattern can be changed
when needed.)
Moisture content (M) and moisture loss (dM/dt) are displayed in graphs during operation
(measurement). Measurement data can be saved as CSV files.
RsTemp is very useful for investigating the optimal heating temperature for samples.

RsKey
RsCom
Sends and receives data between the MS/MX/MF/ML and PC via RS-232C. RsCom is
useful for controlling the MS/MX/MF/ML. Recorded data can be stored as text files. GLP
output data can also be received from the moisture analyzer.
Transfers data from the MS/MX/MF/ML to commercial application software (Microsof
t
Excel, etc.) via RS-232C. RsKey is useful when editing data with other application
software.
Output data from MS/MX/MF/ML moisture analyzers can be automatically input into othe
r
applications as if it was input via a keyboard. Data can be transferred to various types o
f
applications, including spreadsheet applications, and text editors (Word, Notepad). GLP
output data can also be received from the moisture anal
y
zer.
