Use a correct cable that is specified for RS232 data transmission and don't use
unnecessary high-speed set-ups on the output. This to avoid checksum errors and
to secure a correct data transfer. Enter the menu 5.10.5 and select the proper data
transmission speed and hand shaking protocol.
Note:
To enable the serial output of the instrument, the Print functions in point 2 and/
or 3 of the main-menu must be set properly see Printer Configuration on page
49.
Connections:
PC Computer using a 25 pin RS232
PC Computer using a 9 pin RS232
12.3 The Serial Output Format
The data format is of such an extent that the connected computer system also can
trace abnormalities in samples or instrument.
On the user-support site, with the http address stated below, an example is given
of a typical sample including some error marks. Note that the parameter trans-
mission is independent on language settings. The data transmission is always in
English.
Preferably, use a computer in terminal mode connected to the instrument to vi-
sualize the data and to get familiar with the format.
