Once measurement completes, the instrument can send measured values automatically as
data to a computer via its UBS or RS-232C interface.
There are two methods for sending data. For more information about how to switch
between the methods, see "Using the USB Interface" (p.123).
(1) COM mode
Data is output to serial communications (COM, RS-232C communication) verification
software or to a receiving program created by the user.
(2) USB keyboard mode (available only with the USB interface)
Data is written to a text editor or spreadsheet application as if it were being typed on
the keyboard.
When using USB keyboard mode, be sure to launch the text editor or spreadsheet
application and position the cursor where you wish the data to be written before output-
ting the data. Improper placement of the cursor will cause the data to be overwritten at
that point. Be sure to set the input mode to single-byte characters.
Output data format
Measured value format when scaling is off
(The measured value format varies depending on scaling. (p.50))
Changing the number of digits in the measured value will not change the format. Undis-
played digits have a value of 0.
For positive measured values, a space (ASCII 20H) represents the “+” sign.
When ±OvrRng is displayed, values are ±1E+20.
When a measured value fault occurs, values are ±1E+30.
• When using the internal trigger [INT], data is automatically sent at TRIG signal input or
when the key is pressed.
• Do not use commands when data output is ON. Doing so may cause measured values to
be sent twice or other issues.
