OPERATING MANUAL
Start DCAPP for Excel, and on the download prompt, press C-SCAN 2000 key.
After download, the screen will revert to the startup screen. This key may also be
used if Microsoft Hyperteminal is being used or any terminal software.
Print Cnvrt
The key ‘Print cnvrt’ allows data to be paced correctly for a Patton electronics
(www.patton.com) model 2029 serial-to-parallel converter, for direct connection
to a parallel printer. Use this key when using the converter. DO NOT use the
other keys. As a printer expects line-feeds, using the other keys will print out on
ONE line. NOTE: This interface is not guaranteed to work with all printers. It is
recommended to use DCAPP instead.
After download, the screen will revert to the startup screen.
C-SCAN 2010
The key C-SCAN 2010 allows data to be downloaded to DCAPP 2010. Note that
DCAPP 2010 will accept any of the downloads selected. Start DCAPP 2010,
connect C-SCAN and click the DL button on DCAPP 2010, then press C-SCAN
2010 on the keypad.
After download, the screen will revert to the startup screen.
NOTE: DCAPP 2010 may not be supplied with your system. If this is the case,
use DCAPP for Excel.
NOTE: If after download, DCAPP reports ‘no data’ check your regional settings
on your PC. The decimal separator should be ‘.’ Or ‘,’. Any other character will
report ‘no data’.
See Survey Procedure Manual for more details on DCAPP.
Unlike C-SCAN 2000 systems, the data remains in memory and a new survey will
continue from the last survey point stored. The 2010 can store 500 survey points
split over 100 surveys, so it is unlikely that a surveyor will run out of memory.
However, it is recommended that the memory is cleared after successful
download (unless a survey is continuing). Note that pipeline details, diameter
etc., will also be cleared.
