selected feature to a computer over the serial port. Touch the Extra tab to display the data choices.

NOTE

The Extra tab is configured in the Display setup screen. Please refer to

Chapter 10: Setup for details.

The data sent to the serial port always corresponds to the information displayed in the DRO screen. The

information types are shown in the upper-left corner of the screen and are:

• Current position (no feature selected)

• Feature measurement (feature selected)

the diameter icon when a circle

feature is selected in the feature

serial port, however, touching

the angle icon when a circle is

selected produces no result.
