Via the installed serial interface all functions of the gaussmeter can be piloted by a
controller (e.g. a personal computer). The interface can be used in two completely
different ways.
On the one hand the gaussmeter can write the data directly into any PC application.
In this KEYBOARD mode, the gaussmeter acts similar to a keyboard that is connected
to a personal computer. The measuring data are transmitted automatically on press-
ing the DATA

DATA button. A special installation of drivers is not necessary. This operating
mode works for computers based on Windows
as well as for Linux
operating sys-
tems or for Apple
computers. The only requirement for the computer is that it has a
connection for keyboards based on USB 2.0. This operating mode is e.g. suitable for
filling out Excel
sheets easily.
If you want to control the gaussmeter automatically and the connected computer is
supposed to actively carry out the data exchange, a connection via a virtual serial in-
terface is possible. In this operating mode a USB compliant CDC connection is estab-
lished. The gaussmeter acts like an additional serial interface for a user program.
However, in this case you must install a driver. For the standard Windows
operating
systems the driver is included in the delivery.
The data transmission itself, i.e. the protocol, is defined in close connection to the
widely-used SCPI programming language for measuring devices.
