Transferring Readings To A Computer - Elcometer CG60DL Operating Instructions Manual

10 TRANSFERRING READINGS TO A COMPUTER

Readings can be transferred from the Model CG60 and Model CG60DL to a computer. The Model CG60
will transfer readings as they are taken. The Model CG60DL will transfer readings as they are taken and
also transfer the contents of its memory.
A data transfer cable is used to connect the gauge to the computer. This cable is supplied with the Model
CG60DL and is available as an optional accessory for the Model CG60 (see "Spares" on page 38).
Elcometer recommends the use of NDT Link available from www.elcometerndt.com but other types of
software may also be used.
10.1 CONNECTING THE DATA TRANSFER CABLE
1. Plug the 9-pin female D-type connector on one end of the data transfer cable into the COM port on the
PC, or USB to COM adapter.
2. Plug the jack connector on the other end of the data transfer
cable into the RS232 data connection socket on the bottom
of the gauge (Figure 7).
3. Start the communications software.
