6. The Communication Port

6.1 Communication Port
There are up to two communication ports on the Statim 7000.
A RS232 port is located on the back of the unit. Some models
come with an additional USB port on the front of the unit.
For units not equipped with a USB port on the front of the unit,
the RS232 port will allow you to connect to an external printer
or a SciCan Data Logger that records and stores cycle
information onto a mass storage device (MSD) such as a USB
Flash Drive or SD memory card.
For units equipped with a USB port on the front of the unit, the
RS232 port will only allow you to connect to an external printer.
The front mounted USB will be used to record and store cycle information onto
a USB Flash Drive
For printing to a RS232 printer, you may need to purchase a recommended printer (see list
below) from your local computer or electronics store.

* Due to a variety of software programs/viewers that can be used to view the data files stored on a
mass storage device such as a USB memory stick, we recommend the above settings.
For your Statim to communicate to a specific device, you must enable this function through
the User Setup menu. Follow the instructions in section 6 ..2 Installing the SciCan Data Logger
below to enable communication to either an external printer or the SciCan Data Logger.
