(9) Data Transfer
This chapter describes how to move tests from an older Humphrey Field Analyzer model (either the
HFA II or an HFA II-

network connection, a USB device, or by connecting a serial cable to the Data Transfer ports of two
HFA instruments. Serial connections can be: HW COM port, COM-USB adapter or COM-Network
adapter. The HFA3 is able to combine HFA II, HFA II-

and HFA3 data to create reports.
