9 COMMUNICATING WITH THE ESM301
TEST STAND


MESURgauge can collect data from an ESM301 test stand. The
test stand can output either force data only or force data combined
with travel data (if the ESM301-001 integrated travel indication op-
tion is installed). To communicate with MESURgauge, certain set-
tings in the test stand, force gauge, and software must be changed
as follows:


9.1 Force data only

1. Check physical connections (refer to the ESM301 user’s guide).

2. Force gauge settings (refer to the gauge’s user’s guide).

1. Set to automatic output of every sample.


2. Disable Mitutoyo BCD output.


3. Test stand settings

1. Set the baud rate to 115,200.


2. Set the Control mode to Console.



9.2 Force and travel data simultaneously

1. Check physical connections (refer to the ESM301 user’s guide).

2. MESURgauge settings

1. Test Setup tab

1. Under Travel check the Enable box. Under

Reading Mode, if Continuous Readings is se-
lected, Readings per Sec. defaults to 4. This
value can be increased.
