TIP.
If the serial port is not communicating with other equipment try:
a) Check that control word on the Dynatester and the equipment receiving data match.
b) Check that the baud rate is set to the same as the equipment receiving data.
c) Check that the connecting lead is wired correctly at both ends if not using the lead
supplied.
d) Check if the equipment receiving data requires the units of measurement inhibited or
a leading character. This can be applicable when interfacing to Mitutoyo® equipment.
If the serial output is being overwritten set 'OUTPUT LINE FEED' to YES.
