Manual Datafox PZE-MasterIV Basic
2.3 System structure
2.3.1 Device functions
In principle, Datafox PZE-MasterIV Basic offers two possibilities to create workflows for
data collection.
Via the PC-setup program "‘DatafoxStudioIV"’ many processes for data collection can be created
quickly without programing knowledge. Such a process is a setup for the device and can be loaded
on the device via the communication program. Devices using such setup programs are equipped
with the standard firmware at production. (Details about the software versions see chapter
Free Programming in C. The progression packet offers many basis routines and a supporting program
which can be used as basis for own programs. Devices for c-programming are delivered without the
standard firmware and only in connection with an instruction.
2.3.2 Communication
There are 4 possibilities available for communication/ data transmission.
1.)
Setup- and communication program
The setup- and communication program supports both the setting of the device settings and the
important possibilities of data transmission (these data transmission functions are for test purposes
primarily). Of course they can also be used for regular data transmission. But this is disadvanta-
geous, because 2 work steps are necessary: At first you have to read out the data via the setup- and
communication program and to file them as ASCII-file. Then the second program has to be opened
and the file must be imported.
