Sending serial data to an external device
6.2  Sending serial data to an 
external device
 Connect the external equipment to the instrument via 
the correct interface cable and switch it on.
The AutoSigma 3000 DL will recognise the connection 
and change the use of the SEND button from internal 
data logging to external serial data transfer.
Individual fi les or the entire memory can be transmit-
ted, but only fi les containing stored data will be trans-
ferred i.e. fi le active or fi le full.
A long press on the SEND button is used to initiate 
data out  transfer with the File menu set to a single fi le 
or ALL FILES.
