USB COMMUNICATION
The 3000 series uses an advanced USB logging feature for
system logging and diagnostics. The controller outputs 36
separate data points per second to either a USB flash disk
or transmitted over USB via TTY to a client PC. To prepare
the unit for logging, first verify the USB port is set to the
proper configuration. See "USB Port" for information on
configuring the USB port.
Flash Mode:
Suitable for logging directly to a USB flash disk.
PC Link Mode:
Suitable for communicating directly with a PC via USB.
USB Communication (Flash)
The main control can host a wide range of flash disks up
to a maximum capacity of 8GB. After verifying the USB
port is set to "Flash", simply insert a flash disk in to the
USB port located above the grille. The flash disk activity
light (located on the flash disk) will begin flashing
immediately as data is recorded to the drive. Data is
recorded in one second increments and is only limited by
the capacity of the flash disk.
The system will create a file named "uline.csv" on the
flash disk. In the event the file already exists, new data
will automatically be appended to the end of the existing
file. The file is output in a comma delineated text format
and may be viewed in a wide variety of simple text
readers or spreadsheet programs.

USB COMMUNICATION (PC LINK)
Data can be transmitted directly to a client PC via a serial
connection. Verify the USB port is set to "PC Link". Use a
Type A to Type A male to male USB cable to connect the
®
system to a Windows compatible PC. It is necessary to
install communication drivers to the client PC. Drivers
may be downloaded at u-lineservice.com. Establish a
connection using a Telnet / TTY terminal application. U-
Line recommends PuTTY. PuTTY is available for download
at u-lineservice.com. Once the connection is established,
the controller will output a series of 36 data points in 1
second increments. For information on identifying each
data point, see the "Communication Data" table on page
17.
