10-5. USB interface The USB is an interface to read the indicated value of the TM380 and to write parameters into the TM380. This interface is convenient to process controls, totals, records, etc., by connecting the TM380 to PC. Moreover, set values can be read and written by specific PC software, and also input signal can be shown in wave form.
10 OPTION INTERFACE ■Installation of the TM380 PC application software When you use the TM380 PC application software, please download and install it from the Unipulse homepage. * https://www.unipulse.tokyo/en/product/tm380/ Download a compressed file from download page to a PC. Decompress the compressed file by the PC then start installer.
This mode performs communication by a command from the host computer. In this mode, you can read out the indicated value, status, set values and write in set values. * Please be sure to use this setting in the case of use of the TM380 PC application software.
