Transferring Results with Third Party Software
In some situations (e.g. if you are using a Macintosh™ or DOS-
only machine), you may want to use communications software
other than that included with your instrument. If so, follow
the instructions below.
1.
Connect Type 2239B to your computer as described in
section 4.3.1.
2.
Start your communications software.
3.
Set your software’s communication parameters as follows:
●
9600 Baud
●
8 data bits
●
1 stop bit
●
Parity: none
●
Handshake: XON/XOFF
4.
Your communications software will probably ask you for
a name and location to which to save the data. Make the
appropriate selections. All records will be saved in a single
spreadsheet format file (tab separated) with the name and
location you choose.

until the Output Stored
Results Window is visible on the screen, as shown below.
