Saving and Transferring Data
Connecting a personal computer to the IQ plus 210 EDP port allows you to save indicator configuration data to the PC or to
download configuration data from the PC to an indicator. The following sections describe the procedures for these save and
transfer operations.
5.2.1
Saving Indicator Data to a Personal Computer
Configuration data can be saved to a personal computer connected to the EDP port. The PC must be running a
communications program such as PROCOMMPLUS
When configuring the indicator, ensure that the values set for the BAUD and BITS parameters on the SERIAL menu match the
baud rate, bits, and parity settings configured for the serial port on the PC.
To save all configuration data, send the DUMPALL EDP command to the indicator. The IQ plus 210 responds by sending all
configuration parameters to the PC as ASCII-formatted text.
5.2.2
Downloading Configuration Data from PC to Indicator
Configuration data saved on a PC or floppy disk can be downloaded from the PC to an indicator. This procedure is useful when
a number of indicators with similar configurations are set up or when an indicator is replaced.
To download configuration data, connect the PC to the EDP port as described in
mode and use the PC communications software to send the saved configuration data to the indicator. When transfer is
complete, calibrate the indicator as described in
Calibration settings are included in the configuration data downloaded to the indicator. If the receiving indicator is a
Note
direct replacement for another IQ plus 210 and the attached scale is not changed, recalibration is not required.
When downloading configurations that include changed serial communications settings, edit the data file to place
the serial communications changes at the end of the file. Communication between the PC and indicator will be lost
once the indicator receives settings for baud rate (BAUD parameter) or data bits and parity (BITS parameter) that do
not match those configured for the PC.
