Teledyne 9110T instruction manual DAS Configuration VIA Terminal Emulation Programs

Model 9110TH NOx Analyzer Data Acquisition System (DAS) and APICOM

7.2.2. DAS CONFIGURATION VIA TERMINAL EMULATION PROGRAMS

Although TAI recommends the use of APICOM, the DAS can also be accessed and configured through a terminal emulation program such as HyperTerminal (see Figure 7-4 for example). It is best to start by downloading the default DAS configuration, getting familiar with its command structure and syntax conventions, and then altering a copy of the original file offline before uploading the new configuration.

Figure 7-4: DAS Configuration Through a Terminal Emulation Program

See Section 8.2.1 for configuration commands and their strict syntax. Commands can be pasted in from of an existing text file, which was first edited offline and then uploaded through a specific transfer procedure.

IMPORTANT	IMPACT ON READINGS OR DATA
	Whereas the editing, adding and deleting of DAS channels and
	parameters of one channel through the front-panel control buttons can
	be done without affecting the other channels, uploading a DAS
	configuration script to the analyzer through its communication ports will
	erase all data, parameters and channels by replacing them with the new
	DAS configuration. Backup of data and the original DAS configuration is
	advised before attempting any DAS changes.
