Chapter 6 – Software
E.g. the CSV version can be stored (also see section 6.1 on page 30) by use of the program
hyper-terminal ®. Therefore, use the function record text in the menu transmission ... and
enter a file name (it should sensibly have the file ending .csv so that the spreadsheet anal-
ysis recognizes the file by itself later) use. After the file has been recorded and closed under
HyperTerminal®, it can be integrated into a spreadsheet calcuation (e.g. Microsoft ® Excel
®, Sun ® StarCalc ®, ...) .
When opening the file, the spreadsheet analysis questions on some options. When asked,
answer that the values are separated by comma. The data can be processed then into dia-
grammatic form or saved as a native spreadsheet analysis file for the passing on.
6.2.2.10 (P)assword
Under password, the already known combination
815
can be used for saving the user pa-
rameters or for the software update. Furthermore a new service password for device
specfific changes can be created.
6.2.2.11 Se(t)up Ref.transponder Values
Since the antennas aren't bound to one of certain end worth ones, this menu item was in-
troduced. The setup of the reference transponder should be executed one time at the put-
ting into operation and at a change of the interpreter.
Note
This command should be only executed once during the putting into operation since other-
wise changes in the antenna precision cannot be noticed since they are included in the ref-
erence values at every setup of the reference transponder!
The reference transponder is switched after starting of the reference transponder setup and
the sum- and differential voltages are stored temporarily and shown on the monitor pro-
gram. To integrate those values, you must save them .
6.2.2.12 (U)pdate Firmware
The update sets the processor of the interpreter to the boot load mode. This boot load offers
the possibility the proceed a software update without disconnecting and then connecting
the device to the power supply. Therefore, the update program has to be installed like de-
scribed in chapter 6.3 on page 43.
Push
in the main menu. Then proceed the following steps:
1.
Open the flash program.
2.
Choose the COM port to which the antenna is connected.
3.
Choose the HEX file, which you want to program.
4.
Go back to Hyperterm und press any key.
5.
Within the next 20 sec. close the COM port in Hyperterm by using the icon
, then
change to the HEX Flasher and start the programming.
As soon as the programming is finished, change again to Hyperterm, wait 10 sec. and con-
nect again to the COM port (for example by using the icon
). Start he monitor mode
once more (see also 6.2.1 on page 31).
