4. DATA TRANSFER
The SC-30 is equipped with 2 data outputs:
•
The AC output: an analogue output directly proportional to the preamplifier output.
•
The RS-232 communication port: a bi-directional digital serial port for communication with
a PC.
4.1 Data transference to a PC: Communication software
The communications software supplied with the SC-30 ( Capture Studio) allows
you to carry out the following operations:
•
Transmission to a PC, in real time, of data measured by the SC-30.
•
Downloading of the registers stored by the SC-30.
•
Management of the registers (erasure, etc.).
•
Programming of the sound level meter (time, sound level meter or spectrum analyser
mode functions, etc.).
To transfer data, you must connect the RS-232 port of the sound level meter to a computer
serial port by means of the serial cable supplied.
For more information about how the software application works, access its help menu.
