Collection to a PC
Test results can be output through the serial port. A variety of devices can receive
the data. An HP Palmtop computer, PC, laptop, or terminal can be used. A
terminal emulator can log the test results to a file. Examples of terminal emulator
programs are HP AdvanceLink and ProComm, a product of DataStorm
Technologies, Inc.
