PRINTING TO A PC
Sometimes it is required to have the CAL3K data on a spreadsheet as opposed to a paper copy. The
CAL3K can provide spreadsheet data activated from the keyboard. The operation is the same as
activating a printable form output.
A spreadsheet requires the data in a form it can understand. A common input form to all spreadsheets is
the ‘Comma Separated Variable’, in short .CSV.
To get the CAL3K output in to your PC (in a .csv form) the following steps are required:
1.
Download a free RS232 service app such as TERATERM or any other Virtual Terminal App
2.
Connect the CAL3K to your PC’s RS232 port
3.
Start the App and configure it to the same speed as the CAL3K port
4.
If you have no results in memory then simulate a result:
