The rheometer waits for communication with a PC. Data transfer between the PC and the rheometer
is performed through the RS232 serial interface of the R/S+ Rheometer.
If Rheo 3000 software is installed on the PC, the REMOTE (MEASURE) program can be run.
This operation can also be ended at any time by pressing the ST key. The current measurement
is also cancelled by pressing the ST key in REMOTE operation.
On completion of the communication with the PC, the LCD shows: “Remote done ...” Pressing
the ST key will return the display to the Main Menu.
During measurement in REMOTE operation, the LCD will display troubleshooting information
in case errors occur.
