4.6.4 USB service port
Diagram 22: Front-panel USB service port
The USB service port (micro-B) is located on the front of the instrument behind the screw-in cover. The
enhanced IP degree of protection is only provided when the screw-in cover is closed.
You can use the USB service port to configure all the settings for the DIGIFORCE
®
9311 and to retrieve
all the measurement and evaluation results including the complete set of measurement curves. The
DIGIFORCE
®
9311 and DigiControl PC software (part no 9311-P101 or 9311-P100 PLUS-Version) can
communicate with each other via the USB service port. Use a USB-A plug to Micro-B connecting cable
(burster part number 9900-K358, length 1.8 m) to connect to a PC USB port. The protocol specification
for the USB service port is provided in a separate document: "The DIGIFORCE
®
9311 interface manual".
Note:
The protection class IP65 is reversed, when using the USB service port on the front panel. We
recommend using this USB service port for a short period only.
4.6.5 Ethernet port
You can use the Ethernet port to configure all the settings for the DIGIFORCE
®
9311 and to retrieve all
the measurement and evaluation results including the complete set of measurement curves. The
DIGIFORCE
®
9311 and DigiControl PC software (part no 9311-P101 or 9311-P100 PLUS-Version) can
communicate with each other via the Ethernet port. You can specify Ethernet port parameters such as the
IP address in the "Basic setup" menu (M18) (see section 6.1.10.2 "Ethernet interface parameters" on
page 55).
Use a standard patch cable of category "Cat5e" or above for connecting to an Ethernet network.
The protocol specification for the Ethernet port is provided in a separate document: "The
DIGIFORCE
®
9311 interface manual".
4.6.6 USB host port (memory-stick data logging)
The USB host port (USB type A) is located on the rear of the instrument.
When you plug in a USB flash
drive and enable data logging, an entry containing result data (but not the measurement curve) is made in
the plain-text *.csv file for each measurement (you can find further details in section
"USB flash" on
