Send
The ProPanel Readout has an output port that may be used to
send measurement information to another device (i.e. a PC) via a
wireless transmitter.
See
Data Transmission in this document or ProRF on proscale.com.
After connecting a transmitter to the 10 pin output connector on the Readout,
the user may initiate the data transmission by momentarily pressing the
SEND
key. This will cause
Snd
to display on the Readout for 1 second to show
activation of the send function (even if no device is attached to the Readout).
All inch modes are transmitted as decimal inches. All metric modes are
transmitted as millimeters. The measurement data transmitted is typically the
displayed position on the LCD, with the exception of when Special Function
Mode is set to Measurement Accumulation or Statistics modes (See
Advanced Programming Functions ) . In those modes, the displayed (or
calculated) values are sent, NOT the current jaw position.
The data format and connector style of the output port is Mitutoyo
Digimatic .
This is an industry standard that can be interfaced with most products
including multiplexers & RS232 converters.
Offset Addition
Offset addition allows values to be pre-programmed that are then added to
the measurement, and the sum is displayed on the LCD. This function allows
the user to switch to inside measurements or from one reference point to
another.

When enabled, the user can scroll through the active offsets by
pressing the

key. The numbers
1, 2, 3 or 4
will be
displayed on the upper left part of the LCD with each press of

When no numbers are displayed, no offset addition is active.
When the number
1 is displayed in the upper left corner, Offset Addition
Preset # 1 (
pr31
) has been applied to the measurement and the result is now
displayed on the LCD.
Similarly, when the number
2 is displayed in the upper left corner,
Offset Addition Preset # 2 (
PR
32
) has applied to the measurement. When the
number
3
is displayed, Offset Addition Preset 3 (
pr33
) has been applied to the
measurement, and when the number 4 is displayed, Offset Addition Preset 4
(
pr34
) has been applied to the measurement and the result displayed.
