Overview
The data from the drive; such as drive setup, parameters, variables, trend
data, fault masks, alarm queues etc., can be uploaded and saved into
laptop using HyperTerminal program. When using the HyperTerminal
program to upload the data, you will be prompted to select a file to store
this data. Therefore, you need to open an empty Notepad file and then
save that file on your pc before uploading the data from the drive. The
following example illustrates the method to create an empty .txt file
(example1.txt) and upload (or print) the data from drive into laptop.
Required:
- Laptop with Windows HyperTerminal program
- A null-modem cable with a 9-pin female connector for the laptop
serial port, and a 9-pin male connector for the ACB Printer Port (J11).
(A serial cable with pins 2-3 swapped at one end will also work)
Here is a typical pin out of a complete null-modem cable. Essentially,
only 3 pins (2, 3 and 5) are all that is required.
