4) Set the communications software COMM port to the port number

that the MX-5 DL is connected - direct comm1, comm 2, etc.

5) Proceed to the section USING THE DATA LOGGER.

Note: Communications software packages generally have the ability

to capture the screen data to a common text file. This text file,

containing the measurements, can then be imported into any

common spreadsheet program (i.e. Excel, Quattro Pro,

Lotus123) for further reporting requirements.

Using The Data Logger

The MX-5 DL is equipped with an on board data logging feature.

This will prove to be a valuable reporting tool for inspection

purposes. It will increase efficiency by reducing the time it takes to

manually record the measurements during the inspection process.

The MX-5 DL can then be connected to a computer or serial printer

to save and print the results of the inspection.

The MX-5 DL has a storage capacity of 1000 measurements.

The MX-5 DL has 10 files consisting of 100 sequential storage

locations in each file. The procedure for using the data logger is

outlined in the following steps:

1) Press ON/OFF key to power up the MX-5 DL.

2) Press the MEM key to activate the data logger.
