Question: How can I check the communication?
Answer: You can use any communication program like HyperTerminal which is supplied with your
Windows operating system (Microsoft).
Example: HyperTerminal
1. Open the HyperTerminal and choose a name for the connection.
Press OK.
2. Then enter the Ethernet address of the indicator and the port
number as shown at the left. Also you need to set the connection
type to “TCP/IP (WinSock)”.
3. To test the connection now, you can set the Ethernet output of the
indicator to “continuous” (refer to chapter 8.3.3).
With an active HyperTerminal you should now be able to follow the
data stream.
11.3.3 Data Structure
[0--] Interface Block
[03-] Ethernet
This sub-block includes the parameters of the Ethernet port.
[030 X ] Data Format
0 : No data transfer (default) 1 : Continuous data output
2 : PC-Software interface mode (with ASCII P and Z) 3 : Host mode
4 : Ticket and report printer
Note:
In continuous data format of the Ethernet interface, the checksum byte is disabled.
The data structure depends on the selected data format (see parameter [030]):
Data format Data structure
Continuous output mode See Appendix 2
Print mode See Chapter 8.2.5 and 8.2.6 parameter [040]
Host mode See Appendix 3
[031 XX] Address
The address of the instrument will be entered via numerical keypad in the range 01 to 99.
