Data Transfer
Board and port locations are shown in Figure 3-4.
Ethernet Port, J9
J9 is the generator's Ethernet port. A cable connects J9
to the HMI interface.
RS-232 Port, J10
At the end of each cycle, data can be sent from this serial
RS-232 port. Typically the data is sent to a PC where it
can be stored or manipulated to suit the user.
Output Format - The Comma Separated Value (CSV)
format is used. With this format, each characteristic value
is output along with an additional part data index unique
to a particular characteristic.
This allows a program to identify each characteristic and
store it in an appropriate file regardless of the order in
which the characteristic is received. Figure 9-1 shows an
example of this output format, and Table 9-I on the next
page gives the Part Data Index numbers and descriptions.
