(The number can be confirmed using Property - System No. as described

example, a value of 1 will result in every data point being acquired, a

value of 2 will acquire every other data point, a value of 3 acquires every

third data point, and so on. The default value is 1.

If the connection conditions are already specified, selecting [File] - [Connect] will connect

the communications between the Data Monitor and the DAQ Desktop.

Clicking the [Connect] button connects the communications between the Data Monitor

and the DAQ Desktop. Clicking the [OK] button activates the specified information and

closes the dialog box (not connected, yet). Clicking the [Cancel] button discards the

specified information and closes the dialog box.

CX folder, the communications between the Data Monitor and the DAQ Desktop are

automatically connected.

• Depending on the line condition, the connection may be stopped. In that case, reconnect to

the host.
