Printer and Hardcopy General Use
The DAS provides different ways of capturing menus and printing data to meet
most printing needs. You can send the print data to a printer or save the data in a
file for use with a text editor or in a host application. Depending on whether the
DAS is connected to a hosted network or is used in a self-contained configura-
tion, you can send the print data to one or more of the following destinations:
H
A local file stored in the Print_Output directory of the DAS
H
A local printer connected to the RS-232C Auxiliary port of the DAS
H
A remote network file
H
A network printer (hosted or self-contained)
The DAS provides two main tools for printing. You can use the Print Screen tool
to print an image of any one of the DAS menus (screens). You can use the Print
Setup overlays (available with most Setup and Display menus) to print the setup
data, state data, disassembly data, and timing data according to the parameters
specified in the individual Print Setup overlays.
For most printing you should use the Print Screen tool to capture and print data.
Use the Print Screen Setup overlay (in the Communications menu) to specify the
print screen setups (refer to Print Screen Setup Overlay on page 3–50). Then refer
to Capturing and Printing Menus beginning on page 3–72 for instructions on
using the Print Screen tool for capturing and printing menus.
