Data displayed on the computer screen can be captured for use in a word
processing spreadsheet.
To access data using a computer:
1. Open a terminal program, such as Hyper Terminal.
2. Verify the communications format is compatible with the data port of the
monitor. If the communications format is compatible, real-time data begins to
be displayed on the computer.
3. Capture the text to a file.
4. Press Ctrl-C to halt the data flow.
5. Import the data file into the spreadsheet. The data can now be manipulated by
the commands of the spreadsheet. Some formatting of the data may be
necessary.
When a real-time display or printout is being transmitted to a printer or computer,
a new line of data is printed every two seconds. Every 25th line is a column
heading line. A column heading line is also printed when a value in the column
heading line is changed. A real-time printout is shown in Figure 17.
