Values shown on the moisture analyzer display can also be shown in any Windows application (such
as Microsoft Excel or the mass entry window of an analyzer). A value transferred from the moisture
analyzer is automatically entered in the cursor position of an application like the keyboard entry.
If keyboard entry is enabled, data can be obtained directly from the moisture analyzer.

Differences depending on the OS used
When the Windows XP operating system (OS) is running, you can use the Windows Direct
