8.4.2 Capturing Data From Quintox

To capture data direct from the Quintox into a PC the RS232 port on the Quintox has
to be connected to the serial port on your PC. Using the standard RS232 lead, and
IBM/AT lead if you serial port is a 9 pin D type, connect the Quintox to the PC.

The RS232 can output in two formats, Comma Separated variable (CSV) and Binary (for
the logger).

The standard default setting is binary and will always be set if the instrument is switched
off and on. To change between the outputs press followed by .


The instrument will beep and change the output, repeat the key sequence to change back.
The format for the CSV output is as follows:-

Where a number is not displayed the following meanings can be taken:-

N = Not fitted
F = Fault
O = Over range (i.e. Oxygen reading 20.9% hence excess air can not be calculated)

Downloading Logged Data

The FIREWORKS software allows data to be downloaded from the handset. This
section is supplied to explain how to set the handset in a state ready to transmit data.

Using the lead RE5PC supplied with FIREWORKS connect the 15 pin D connector to
the handset and the 9 pin D connector to your PC serial port. Most PCs have a 9 pin D
serial port if yours has a 25 pin contact your computer supplier for a convertor.

Set the logger to DOWNLOAD data and ensure it is in READY mode.

NOTE: You will require batteries to run the logger and download the data.
