[. . . ] Instruction Manual CyberScan CON 10/100/200 Hand-held Conductivity/TDS/Temperature Meter Technology Made Easy . . . 68X075513 09/2001 Rev 3 Preface This manual serves to explain the use of the CyberScan series Conductivity meters. The models covered are the CyberScan CON 10, CyberScan CON 100 and CyberScan CON 200 portable conductivity and total dissolved solids meters. This manual functions in two ways: first, as a step by step guide to help the user operate the meter; second, it serves as a handy reference guide. This manual is written to cover as many anticipated applications of the CyberScan Conductivity meters as possible. [. . . ] The process to be followed in clearing the memory is outlined in SETUP (see section 8. 2. 1). The accessibility of this function through the SETUP mode is to limit accidental clearing of memory from the measurement mode. 23 7 7. 1 PRINT FUNCTION (IN CYBERSCAN 200 ONLY) Printing data key that facilitates the printing of data The CyberScan CON 200 meter is equipped with a into the computer in the form of a data file. Using the CyberScan CON 200 meter with the printer 1. To use the CyberScan CON 200 meter directly with a printer, the printer should have either a 9-pin or a 25-pin RS 232 serial port. The printer should have options to receive 8 data bits, even (2), odd (1) or none (0) parity bit and one (1) or two (2) stop bits. If the printer has a 25-pin connector, use a 9 to 25-pin converter (if available) or make your own cable taking note of the connection parameters as described in Section 3. 5 (Connecting the RS 232 cable). This is required if the printer has both serial and parallel interfaces. Change the CON 200 meter setup parameters for the proper baud rate, parity and stop bits. Ensure that these parameters are identically set on both the printer and the meter. To send data to the printer, press the key. 24 7. 2 Printing errors The meter displays an error by blinking the printer and error annunciators if the printer is not ready to receive data or if the printer is off. As soon as the printer is ready, the error display will automatically go off. While the meter is displaying the printer error, the user may press the CAL/MEAS key to go back to the measurement mode. Figure 20: Display of printing error 7. 3 Sending data to the computer To send data to the computer, connect the RS 232C cable from the base of the meter to the COMM port 1 of the computer. Load and run the CYDATA data acquisition program ensuring that the parameters of the settings in the meter and the CYDATA are identical. To send data to the computer, press the key. Figure 21: Sending data to the computer 7. 4 Printing measurement data key. Note that the printing To print any data that is currently being measured, press the capability is available for the COND, TDS and TEMP modes. The data will be printed onto the printer paper or the screen of the CYDATA program automatically as illustrated in Page 26. 7. 5 Printing data from memory The CyberScan CON 200 meter can print data that is stored in the memory. Firstly, ensure that the cables are properly connected to either the printer or the computer and the units are configured to receive the data from the meter. Change the mode to the mode of measurement from which data needs to be printed. Scroll to the data that needs to be printed by pressing the MR/" key. The data Figure 22: Printing data from memory displayed will then be sent to the printer or the computer. An example of the printout is shown in Page 26. 25 An example of a printout for Printing Measurement Data: Cond: Cond: Cond: Cond: Cond: Cond: Cond: Cond: TDS: TDS: TDS: TDS: TDS: TDS: TDS: 1. 00 mS 100 uS 10. 0 uS 1. 00 uS 199. 9 uS 1999 uS 19. 99 uS 199. 9 uS 0. 00 ppm 0. 64 ppm 10. 0 ppm 10. 0 ppm 0. 00 ppt 0. 00 ppt 1. 05 ppm Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 33. 2 Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: 14 : 00 : 09 14 : 00 : 11 14 : 00 : 14 14 : 00 : 24 14 : 00 : 28 14 : 00 : 30 14 : 00 : 32 14 : 00 : 34 14 : 00 : 59 14 : 01 : 32 14 : 01 : 38 14 : 01 : 40 14 : 01 : 59 14 : 02 : 02 14 : 01 : 06 An example of a printout for Printing Data from Memory Mem: Mem: Mem: Mem: Mem: Mem: Mem: Mem: 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Cond: Cond: Cond: Cond: Cond: TDS: TDS: TDS: 13. 21 mS 199. 9 mS 1999 uS 14. 52 uS 14. 52 uS 0. 06 ppm 0. 06 ppm 0. 06 ppm Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: Temp: 25. 0 25. 0 25. 0 25. 0 25. 0 25. 0 25. 0 25. 0 Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: Date: 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 07-30-96 Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: Time: 14 : 00 : 52 14 : 00 : 55 14 : 00 : 57 14 : 00 : 59 14 : 01 : 06 14 : 02 : 11 14 : 02 : 13 14 : 00 : 15 26 8 SETTING UP THE CYBERSCAN (FOR CYBERSCAN CON 100/200 ONLY) SETUP program 8. 1 In the SETUP mode in CyberScan CON 100/200 meter, there are four main programs. The programs and options are elaborated under the following sections: PROGRAM 1 2 3 4 DESCRIPITION Common functions Instruments setup TDS units and factor Communication parameters SECTION 8. 2 8. 3 8. 4 8. 5 To enter the SETUP mode, press the SET key from either the µS or ppm measurement MEAS mode.
