6.10.35 RS232
An ASCII string of weld data is sent out through the RS232 port after each weld. The data
is separated with the user-selected choice of a space, comma or tab. The end of the string
contains both a carriage return and a line feed. The data contained within the string is
dependent on the control level and actuator type. It is the same data that is printed on the
single line data output to the printer. It is also formatted in the correct units. Te data can
be read either by a PC or PLC and then saved to a file in a format (i.e. CSV) that can be
read by a spreadsheet program such as Excel. Alarm information will not be sent out the
RS232 port.
