Note on the input/output of parameter and
compensation-value lists
With a terminal program (e.g. Hyper Terminal, included with
Windows ® ), you can receive the lists output by the display unit over
the RS-232-C/V.24 interface as text files and store them on your
PC. Each list must be saved as a separate text file. To transfer the
text files to the display unit, you can also use the terminal program.
If you wish, you can edit the text files with a text editor and
change, for example, the parameter values. However, this requires
knowledge of the different output structures of the lists (see the
following pages). When receiving lists, the display unit assumes the
same list structure as used for the output.
When receiving lists, the display unit first waits for the starting
character < * >.
The receiving mode ends as soon as the display unit has received
the final character < * >.
The lists received are first checked for the type of display unit
(line 2 of output list). The receiving display unit accepts only lists
prepared by the same type of display unit. Furthermore, the list is
checked for completeness. Lists that contain, for example, too
many or too few parameters are ignored. If an error occurs, the
following error message appears:
REC. ERROR
To clear the error message, press the CL key.
When receiving non-valid parameter values, the display unit sets
the respective operating parameter to the default setting.
Example: "P01 INCH = INCH = 3"
Value 3 is not allowed. The parameter P01 is set to the default
setting "P01 MM = MM = 0".
