Start of Transfer

• 

Switch on the Indicating Device.

• 

Press “MENU” and select “Data Output”

• 

Select “Data to PC” as described in the operation instructions of the instrument.

• 

Start by pressing the button “START”.

Data Storage in the PC

• 

Choose in the menu “Transfer/capture text/stop”.

The data are stored in the file Data.txt and are ready for further processing.

Saving the HyperTerminal Settings

• 

Choose “File/Exit” in the menu.

• 

Answer the question “You are currently connected, you want to disconnect now?” with “Yes”.

• 

Answer the question “Do you want to save the connection named PROCEQ ?” with “Yes”.

Display and Processing the Data

The text file “Data.txt” in the folder “C:\PROCEQ” can be displayed with any text editor or word 
processing program. For editing and further processing of the data we recommend MS Excel.
