Note:
Please, always pay attention, that the device must be turned on first, before it is connected to the
started computer. If the data transfer does not work one time, stop the software! Make sure that all the
cable connections are plugged in correctly. Check that all the test stands or external devices are on and
then turn the device on. Start the software again and the data transfer is prepared again.

Transmission of measurement data to an existing terminal program:
To transfer data into an application to your preference, please follow the instructions for this software.
The measurement data transmitting is carried out with the following format
Force EOT
If the display of an incremental distance encoder is activated (optional) and the latter is connected, the
data is transmitted using the following format
Force; distance EOT
Force
: 7 ASCII characters, from 30h to 39h, the possible decimal point (2Eh). Instead of
non-significant zeros vacancies are transmitted (20h)
Distance
: 7 ASCII characters, from 30h to 39h, the possible decimal point (2Eh). Instead of
non-significant zeros vacancies are transmitted (20h)
EOT:
04h
