Transferring Data - Denso BHT-8000 User Manual

1.5 Transferring Data

! Using infrared link
Using infrared rays, the BHT may transfer data directly to the host PC equipped with an IrDA interface
port and other IrDA-compliant devices.
• Make sure that there is no obstruction in the light path between the BHT and any target stations. In
infrared communication, you need to keep the BHT and any target stations within the effective
infrared radiation range, usually 15 cm (5.91") or less.
• Shield the IrDA interface from direct sunlight, ambient intense lighting (inverter-driven fluorescent
lighting, in particular), and other potential sources of infrared radiation. Sources to watch out for
include remote control units for television sets and the like.
For a host PC having no IrDA interface port, use the optical communication unit CU-8001/8002 or
CU-8021 (option) connected to the host via an RS-232C or USB interface cable, respectively.
To use the LAN-support BHT as a LAN client, use the CU-8011 (option) connected to Ethernet via the
Ethernet interface cable.
Put the BHT on the CU-8001/ 8002/8021 as shown below.
