## 2. DataLink DL01 Software

DataLink DL01 Software allows you to send collected data by R-200 to other devices, to receive coordinates data, and to convert the resulting files into a number of common formats.

To install DL01 first time, move to the directory "/DL01" then copy “ DL01.exe” to your computer , and then run it .

To use DL01 with R-200 PTL version, please read the following information.

### a) Recommendation for PN

It is recommended that "PN" (Point Name) data should consist of less or equal to 4 numeric characters(one-byte) to convert files with DL01. Because, it may not be converted properly if alphabetic characters or more than 5 numeric characters(one-byte) are used for the "PN".

### b) Notes for the data transferring.

Please, be careful about following items for the data transfer with DL01.

#### b-1 Recommendation for the upgrade.

Program file and Message image file of R-200 should be upgraded to the latest version.

With PTL Ver.333 or later, "POLAR DATA" can be transferred by "DC1" or "AUX" format. And it is possible DL01 to receive/convert "POLAR DATA" with "DC1(DC-1Z)" format.

#### b-2 Notes for unit.

If you are requested to select unit when you convert data on DL01, please select unit according to the settings on R-200.

#### b-3 Limitation for each format.

Please, use "CSV" or "DC1(DC-1Z)" format to transfer data to/from R-200.

- Limitation for the "CSV" format.

  With the "CSV" format, "PN" and "PC" (Point Code) data consist of less or equal to 15 (one-byte) characters can be transferred.

- Limitations for the "DC1(DC-1Z)" format.

  With "DC1(DC-1Z)" format, the length of "PN" data should consist of less or equal to 11 (one-byte) characters. And with the "DC1(DC-1Z)" format "PC" data cannot be transferred.

#### b-4 Recommended communication settings on R-200.

Recommended settings for "COMM SETTING SELECTION" on R-200 special function are as follows.

- R-200--->PC(DL01) to "SEND RECT. DATA"
  - 1.BAUD RATE: 1200
  - 2.DATA LENGTH: 8
  - 3.PARITY BITS: NIL
  - 4.STOP BITS: 1
  - 5.SIGNAL CONTROL: OFF
  - 6.XON/XOFF: OFF
  - 7.PROTOCOL: OFF for "CSV" format, ON for "DC1(DC-1Z)" format
  - 8.RECORD DELIMETER: CR+LF
