Once history data has been searched for, the search pointer is kept until
the power is turned off. When the memory for history data items becomes
full, the first data in the history is automatically used as the search pointer.
(4)Outputting history data
History data can be output to the host computer via the RS–232–C
interface.
(a) Press the [PUNCH] soft key (one of the operation selection keys)
on the OPERATION HISTORY screen.
(b)The following punching–out can be performed:
(i) Complete punch–out
Press the [ALL] soft key, then press the [EXEC] soft key. All
history data items are output.
(ii) Partial punch–out
1. Before starting partial punch–out, use the search function
to determine the reference points for starting and ending
partial punch–out. The search pointer is used as (reference
history data item) for partial punch–out.
2. Specify the number of display lines of history data items
to output.
Example1 To output 100 history data items forward from
the reference history data item, press the
[PART] soft key, enter 100, then press the
[EXEC] soft key.
Example2 To output 100 history data items backward
from the reference history data item, press the
[PART] soft key, enter –100, then press the
[EXEC] soft key.
Example3 To output all history data items forward from
the reference history data item, press the
[PART] soft key, enter 9999, then press the
[EXEC] soft key.
Example4 To output all history data items backward from
the reference history data item, press the
[PART] soft key, enter –9999, then press the
[EXEC] soft key.
NOTE
1 History data items are always output in the foreground.
2 The valid data range for partial punching is –9999 to 9999
excluding 0. 9999 and –9999 have the meanings described
in the above examples.
When the number of history data items is less than the
absolute value of the value entered, the entered numeric
value is handled as if it were 9999 or –9999.
