1. Introduction
This manual details the communications protocol (COMM) of the indicator.
This protocol is used by the Viewer program to calibrate and configure the instrument.
The Viewer TEST tab can be used as a convenient terminal to test the instrument
communications.
The indicator is fitted with opto-LINK communications as standard. This allows a
temporary isolated communications link to be established with a PC permitting the
instrument software to be upgraded. It also allows the use of computerised setup and
calibration via the Viewer software. The instrument also has an RS-232 port, which may
be used for printing, connection to a remote display or control using COMM. The
instrument can utilise the protocol to fully control the indicator.
