Computer
GC-2014 can be directly connected to a personal computer to output digital signals.
GCsolution software allows a PC to control the unit and take data.
For operation of GCsolution, refer to its instruction manual.
■ Connecting the RS-232C cable
Connect the RS-232C cable attached to GCsolution workstation to the connector on the
back of the GC. (Fig. 2.3.1)
To connect one PC with more than one GCs, separate RS-232C cables are necessary and
an expanded COM port needs to be attached to the PC.
