Outputting Read Characters to an External Device

After a measurement, you can automatically output the character string that was read with the 2D-code
inspection item to a PLC or other external device. The character strings are output after outputting the output
data (output data settings 0 to 31), such as the inspection item parameters and calculation result.
Refer to the description for the communications format for the setting procedure and output specifications to
output the character string.
