Printing a File

The user may wish to print an individual file to a serial printer or

computer. A file can, very simply, be printed to a communications

program on a PC ( i.e. Dakota Ultrasonics DakView, Windows 3.1 -

Terminal, Window 95/98 - HyperTerminal ), and then printed. The

procedure for printing a file is outlined below:

1) Refer to the section on Connecting to a Computer, page 21,

before proceeding.

2) Press the ON/OFF key to power up the PX-7 DL.

3) Press the MEM key to activate the data logging functions and

settings.

4) Press the SEND key to enter file setup.

5) Press the UP / DOWN arrow keys to scroll to the file to be printed (

F-01, F-05, etc. ).

6) Press SEND, once again, to select the file to be printed. The display

will flash the FILE / F-05 ( The file selected ) symbol.

7) Press the UP / DOWN arrow keys to scroll to the flashing Prnt / F-

05 ( The file chosen ), or LISt (tape printer) symbol.

8) Press the SEND key to print the contents of the file.

9) Press the MEM key, at any time, to exit the data logging functions

and return to measurement mode.
