7.2.17  PRINT
The ADTS 405 Mk2 contains a print facility to print the displayed readings together with up to 
nine user readings (e.g., Pilot, Copilot, Aux) to a text file stored within the ADTS internal file 
storage system which may be accessed and printed via PC.
Access to the stored 'Print' files area within the ADTS is gained via the Ethernet port, using a 
PC to create a secure file transfer connection. Details of how to set up an Ethernet 
connection are given in Section 4.13.1, “Ethernet System,” on page 40.
1. This key causes a printout of the date and time followed by the measured value of the 
parameters. A prompt asks for the entry of a reading which can consist of any 
characters A to Z, 0 to 9. (decimal point) or - (minus), in any order. It can be used to 
enter the value from the unit or system under test or alternatively a test number. 
When no more entries are required, press CLEAR/QUIT.
1. To enter an alphabetic character (A to Z), press the [ALPHA] key and use the  or 
(nudge keys) to change to the required character. To enter another alphabetic 
character, press the [ALPHA] key again. Press [BACK] to delete the last character.
2. Up to nine user readings can be entered sequentially. The display prompts for the 
next user reading each time one is entered. When no further readings are required, 
press CLEAR/QUIT. Example print output:

7.2.18  EXECUTE TEST PROGRAM
A test program can contain operator prompts to enter numeric values from instruments; test
