Receiving Files from a Computer
The same type of datalogger information that can be sent to a computer can also be
received or downloaded from a computer to the instrument. There are two benefits:
•
At the next survey date, months or years later, retrieve the previously saved
survey thickness data stored in a computer file with ID numbers. This retrieved
data can be used for the following purposes:
— To guide you through the measurement sequence using the ID numbers.
— To compare current values at the measurement site with previously measured
thickness values.
— To manually or automatically verify that the current measurement setup is
identical to the previously used setup.
•
Create ID number sequences in a computer, and then download them to the
instrument. This externally created sequence can guide you through the
prescribed measurement location path. The ID sequence created in the computer
must have setup information. The setup can be the gage default setups, or any
other desired sequence of setups.
The data downloaded to the 45MG must be in the exact same format as the data
transmitted. Olympus recommends using the GageView interface program to
handle all functions of interfacing, storing, and creating 45MG data. Please
contact Olympus for information on additional software data management
programs.
To receive a data file from a computer
1.
When using GageView or another program to send the file from the computer
using the USB port (see “Setting Up USB Communication” on page 187), turn on
the 45MG and make sure that the measurement screen is active.
2.
From the computer, begin sending the formatted data.
The 45MG displays a
RECEIVING DATA
screen while the data is being sent,
after which it returns to the measurement screen.
