Serial data transfer with the Import or Export
function
The serial ports RS-232/V.24 (X31) and USB Type B (UART, X32) are
located on the rear panel. The following devices can be connected to
these ports (see "Wiring the connecting cable" on page 104):
 Printer with serial data interface
 Personal computer (PC) with serial data interface
Define the system parameters for data transfer (see "Setting up the
serial port" on page 85).
For operations that support data transfer, the ND 287 displays the
IMPORT/EXPORT soft key. Press this soft key to call the two following
soft keys:
 Press IMPORT to receive data from a computer.
 Press EXPORT to send data to a computer or printer.
Data transfer from the ND 287 to a printer
To export data to a serial port printer, press the EXPORT soft key. The
ND 287 exports the data in an ASCII text format which can be printed
directly.
Data transfer from the ND 287 to a PC
To export or import data between the ND 287 and a PC, the PC must
use terminal communications software, such as HyperTerminal,
which is included with Windows ®, or TNCremo. TNCremo is
available from HEIDENHAIN free of charge. You will find the software
on the HEIDENHAIN website at www.heidenhain.de on the
downloads page underDocumentation and Information.
Contact your HEIDENHAIN distributor for further details. This
software processes the data being sent or received over the serial
cable link. All data transferred between the ND 287 and the PC is in
ASCII text format.
