Printing Data
4-1
March 2008
Introduction
The Model GS868 flowmeter has the capability to print any of the
data stored in its memory via the built-in RS232 communications
port. In order to use the function, the RS232 port must be connected
to a printer with a serial port input. A printer with a parallel port input
may be used with a third-party serial-to-parallel adapter.
Note:
See Chapter 1,
Installation
, of the
Startup Guide
for
instructions on wiring the RS232 port. For additional
information, refer to the
EIA-RS Serial Communications
user’s guide (916-054).
After connecting the Model GS868 to a printer, the
Print Menu
is
used to print live or logged data in either numeric or graphical format.
In addition, any site files stored in memory may be printed. The
Menu
is divided into the following submenus:
•
DATA
- use to print live data in numeric or graphical format
•
LOG
- use to print a log file in numeric or graphical format
•
PROG
- use to print a site file
•
STOP
- use to terminate any active print jobs
•
PRNTR
- use to specify the printer currently connected
•
SGNLS
- use to print transducer signal array data
•
RTDs -
use to send the numeric point value of a connected RTD
device to the RS232 port.
For purposes of this discussion it is assumed that the left pane of the
data display screen is active. If the right pane of the data display
screen is active, all of the instructions remain the same, except that
any references to the
[F1]-[F4]
keys should be replaced by the
[F5]-[F8]
keys.
Refer to Figure A-6 on page A-6 in Appendix A,
Menu Maps
, and
proceed to the desired section for detailed instructions. As an
additional aid, the relevant portion of the full menu map is reproduced
in each section of this chapter. Any submenu may be followed in the
sequence shown or the [
↑]
and [
↓]
keys may be used to scroll through
the prompts.
Note:
If a printer has not yet been set up, the instructions in
“The
PRNTR
Submenu”
must be completed before proceeding to any
of the other submenus.
