6. External Receiver - Sets up the laser extensometer to accept input from the
optional External Scan Receiver Unit. This optional accessory is useful for
applications where it is necessary to shoot through the specimen. It is
usually mounted behind the specimen in order to measure portions of the
scanning laser beam shadowed by the specimen. The External Scan
Receiver Unit must be connected before its use by the laser extensometer
can be enabled.
The choices for External Receiver are:
– enabled - External Receiver connected and enabled for use by laser
extensometer.
– disconnected - External Receiver not connected and can not be
enabled for use by the laser extensometer.
– disabled - External Receiver is connected but its use by the laser
extensometer is disabled (that is, not used).
7. BAUD - Sets the BAUD for the Serial I/O Port. The choices are: 9600,
4800, 2400, and 1200.
