13.3.4 About DataLink DL-01 Software
DataLink DL-01 Software allows you to send collected data by R-2500NS to other devices,
to receive coordinates data, and to convert the resulting files into a number of common
formats.
a) Recommendation for "PN".
It is recommended that “PN” (Point Name) data should consist of less or equal to 4
(one-byte) numeric characters to convert files with DL-01. Because, it may not be
converted properly if alphabetic characters or more than 5 (one-byte) numeric
characters are used for the “PN”.
b) Notes for the data transferring.
Please, be careful about following items for the data transfer with "DL-01".
b-1 Type of data, which can be transferred
.
With PTL, “POLAR DATA” can be transferred by “DC1” or “AUX” format.
In addition, it is possible DL-01 to receive/convert “POLAR DATA” with “DC1 (DC-
1Z) ” format.
b-2 Notes for unit
.
If you are requested to select unit when you convert data on DL-01, please select unit
according to the settings on R-2500NS.
b-3 Limitation for each format
.
Please, use “CSV” or “DC1( DC-1Z)” format to transfer data to/from R-2500NS.
Limitation for the "CSV" format
.
With the “CSV” format, “PN” and “PC (Point Code)”data that consists of less or equal
to 15 (one-byte) characters can be transferred.
Limitations for the "DC1 (DC-1Z)" format.
With “DC1 (DC-1Z)” format, the length of “PN” data should consist of less or equal
to 11 (one-byte) characters. And with the “DC1 (DC-1Z)” format “PC” data cannot
be transferred.
