III.3.4 PC Program (On/Off)
This option causes the serial port of the DV-II+ viscometer to go into a high speed output mode
(approximately 3 print lines per second) for use with Brookfield WINGATHER® software program.
When ON, you may enter the Options menu but will not be allowed to make any option selections
until the PC PROG is turned OFF. All front panel keys will function normally when you turn the
option ON and return to normal viscometer operation by pressing the
MOTOR ON/OFF/ESCAPE

When OFF, the DV-II+ will return to the last set print time interval when printing is resumed.
