DATA TRANSFER FROM NANOTEM CACHE
Data from the data cache (NTDATA.CAC) can be downloaded or transferred by two methods.
The direct method uses a RS-232 (COM 1) serial port transfer from the NanoTEM program as
explained in Chapter 7, page 13. Large files will require a long time to transfer with this
method. A fast alternative method is to use the LAN and connect to a network or a laptop PC.
The files transferred by this method need to be reformatted with the NTCNVRT.EXE program
that is included on the Zonge software CD-ROM.
1. Turn off the GDP-32
II
2. Connect the GDP-32
II
to the network using the multi-function interface cable.
3. Start the GDP and get into WINDOWS as described in the previous section. Once
WINDOWS is running, the GDP-32
II
should appear in the Network Neighborhood of the
other computers on the network. The device name for the GDP is “GDP32ii SNxx“ where
xx is the GDP front panel serial number. The NanoTEM cache file is located in d:\data\.
4. Now you can drag files from the GDP (or copy updated programs to the GDP). Place the
program NTCNVRT.EXE into the same folder as the NTDATA.CAC cache file you wish to
convert.
5. Double click on the icon for NTCNVRT.EXE
6. The program will convert the NTDATA.CAC file in the folder to an ASCII file
NTDATA.PRN. To use Zonge Engineering data processing software rename the file
NTDATA.RAW and begin the data processing with the programs SHRED.EXE and
TEMAVG.EXE.
