DATAOPERATIONS

1. Start M300 system (See “How to Start M300” on page 34).
2. Load the desired project (See “Open Project” on page 93). Since we are using UDP mode, the
project used should be similar to the project that is getting used to broadcast the data.
3. If the M300 system was left in play mode, then click stop button first.
4. Pick UDP icon from the mode group. This is the third button from the tool bar (See “Tool Bar”
on page 59).
5. If you wish to create a file to record the data you can do it if you like. Just keep in mind that
UDP protocol is unreliable and it doesn’t receive all the data that was transmitted. You can use
the file menu (See “File Menu” on page 54).
6. If the record button is not pressed, click on it to set the record on (if you wanted to record the
data) (See “Tool Bar” on page 59).
7. Finally, you click on the play button from the M300 tool bar (See “Tool Bar” on page 59).
Once the M300 is running in UDP mode you should see the time incrementing.
The time will match the time of the system that is being used to transmit the data.
The reason we use UDP mode is for large project setups with several systems setup together. The user
that is using the M300 in UDP mode as a system entirely to his disposal.
The project can be setup differently if so desired.
The user can look at different data displays as the ones that are being used in the Main M300 system
that is used to acquire and transmit the data over the network.
HOWDOIRUNMULTIPLEM300SESSIONS
Most M300 users will only run one M300 session at a time. This session will either be in Acquisition
mode or Playback mode.
