Using a Data Capture Program
Using the LI-6400 11-25
1 Connect the cables
Make sure that the cables are connected using one of the configurations
shown in Figure 11-1 on page 11-3.
2 Run COMM
On the PC, type COMM at the DOS prompt to run the program.
3 Configure Comm
On the PC, press F1 to open the configuration menu. Move the cursor to the
ÔLI-6400Õ menu choice and press Enter .
4 Configure the LI-6400
On the LI-6400, select ÔConfigure the COMM portÕ from the Utility menu,
and edit the entry to read
9600 8 1 N . Press
enter
.
5 Verify Communications
On the LI-6400, access the Filer, and select the directory
/sys/utility
. Then,
highlight the file Simple Terminal , and press X to run it. At this point, you have
terminal programs running on both the LI-6400 and the PC, so what you type
on the LI-6400 should appear on the PCÕs screen, and what you type on the
PCÕs keyboard, should appear on the LI-6400Õs display. Verify this.
If nothing appears on either display, there may be a cable problem, or the
Comm program is not using the right Comm Port. If characters are displayed,
but are not the ones you typed, then itÕs a configuration mismatch. Make sure
the baud rates, data bits, etc. match.
Once youÕve verified that communications can happen, exit Simple Terminal
by pressing
f5 on the LI-6400.
6 Tag the files you wish to send
From the Filer, select the directory containing the file(s) to be printed. Tag the
file(s) to be printed. (For how to do this, see page 10-13.)
7 Open a capture file
On the PC, press F6 and type in the file name in which the LI-6400 data will
be captured. Press Enter . If the file already exists, you will be asked if you
wish to overwrite or append, and the left and right cursor keys will toggle be-
tween those choices.
8 Run the print program
On the LI-6400, run the print program by pressing
P
(discussed in Printing
Files on page 10-16). The tagged file(s) are then sent to the RS-232C port.
