SECTION 6 PRINTING AND DATA TRANSFER
6.1 Data Transfer Adapter Basics
The optional Data Transfer Adapter (DTA) utilizes infra-red
technology to receive data from the DR/800 Series Colorimeter
and then transfer the signal into RS232 format. The DTA then
sends the RS232 signal to a printer or personal computer.
The sleeve design makes the adapter compact, easy to use, and
robust. Samples may be tested while the adapter is in place and
the information may be immediately printed or downloaded to a
computer. Data stored in the instrument memory may also be
printed or downloaded at any time.
6.1.1 Attaching the Data Transfer Adapter
The Data Transfer Adapter is designed to fit on the instrument in
the same way the instrument cap does. To install the DTA, simply
remove the instrument cap, then slide the DTA onto the
colorimeter body until it snaps into place. The DTA design allows
the instrument cap to be used as a light shield. See Figure 8
Installing the Data Transfer Adapter.
