Introduction

This chapter informs you on how to obtain hard copies of data stored

in the memory of the monitor. This could, for example, be existing

calibration data, which you need prior to recalibrating.

Alternatively, for those of you who want to use the monitor as a

stand-alone instrument, this chapter enables you to print-out

measurement data, error-logs and data-logs. If any error occurs

during any of these operations, a warning will be displayed. All pos-

sible errors of this kind are listed in

Chapter 15

.

The Monitor has four interface ports on its back panel the RS-232

port can be used for printing or the Ethernet port can be used to

print to a terminal program like HyperTerminal.. This means that any

standard text printer with a RS232 interface can be used to print-out

data from the Monitor. Data can be printed out while the Monitor is

operating – using the Data-logging facility. This means that during

a monitoring task or during a calibration task the Monitor will

automatically send measurement results to the printer as soon as

they are available. Any operational errors or warnings that occur

during a monitoring task can also be automatically printed out using

the Error-logging facility. Alternatively, when the Monitor is not

being operated in any mode, data can be printed out using the

PRINT button. Data can be printed out in three different blocks:

1. Measurement: this block contains the measurement data

displayed on the Monitor screen during the printing operation – it

also provides the set-up parameters for the displayed monitoring

task (see

section 8.2

).

2. Set-Up: this block contains active set-up parameters.

3. Calibration: this block contains the optical filter factors,

calibration factors and all other information related to the

calibration of the optical filters installed in the Monitor.

Printer Cables

To connect the cables:

1. Ensure that both the Monitor and the printer are switched off at

the mains. Failure to do so may result in your equipment being

damaged.

2. Locate the desired port at the back of the monitor. The port is

labelled “RS-232”.

3. Push the cable connector on to the correct socket, and secure it

firmly using the securing screws.
