In connection with a UMV 2000, the program UMV 2000 Measurement Terminal allows you to measure, display and save values with your PC. Communication between the UMV 2000 and a computer is effected through the serial RS-232 interface. This program serves as demonstration for the communication mode of the UMV 2000. Easy commands are transmitted through the serial interface, in order to obtain instantaneous values.
“Auto Play“, the installation routine is shown automatically on your screen. Follow the instructions on the screen. After the installation has successfully been completed, a linkage to the UMV 2000 Measurement Terminal can be found in your start menu.

Here you can set the communication parameters, define the value file to be saved, effect measuring adjustments and select the quantities to be measured.
Dr. Staiger, Mohilo + Co GmbH 5.4 Language setting In the menu optionsàlanguages you can select the preferred language for the program. Any designations and texts (except special error messages and content of the value file) are adjusted to the language setting..
Dr. Staiger, Mohilo + Co GmbH 5.5 Interface settings In order to create a successful communication between the UMV 2000 and your computer the RS-232 parameters must be configured in Optionsàinterface settings. COM-Port The COM-port represents the serial RS-232 interface of your computer Baudrate This term defines the transmission rate of the serial RS-232 interface.

(Baudrate) and the termination of the interface setting window. In order to test the interface settings connect the UMV 2000 through a 9-pole zero modem cable with your computer and switch it on. Please make sure that the communication settings in the UMV 2000 are correct.
6 Defining a new file In order to save measured values from the UMV 2000 with your computer, you must define a new file before storage is started. This file will later contain a table with your measured values. A file can be defined either with FileàNew...
From those the number of measured values to be stored from the UMV 2000 on the computer is determined. Should you plan to display measured values only, the measuring rate is critical. For storage of measured values the storage time is also important.
Please select only measuring quantities which are permitted in the actual measuring Note quantity configuration of the UMV 2000. If for example a speed measurement is active, an angle measurement with the program is not recommended. Furthermore, a mechanic power measurement can only be performed, if this functionality is enabled in the UMV 2000.
Note ü the RS-232-parametes comply with the ones in the UMV 2000, ü the UMV 2000 is connected with a zero modem cable and switched on, ü the correspondingly valid measuring quantities were selected in the program. Should you note temporal dropouts (measured values temporarily frozen) during measurement presentation, perform the following modifications: ü...
In the menu under MeasurementàStoringàStart or by operating the button Start storing you can start the storage of real-time values from the UMV 2000 through the RS-232-interface. The program saves all incoming measured values in the static memory of your computer and transfers these values in the previously defined file, when the storage is ended.
Page 55
Dr. Staiger, Mohilo + Co GmbH When all value positions have been assigned to a measuring quantity, a measuring sequence is started as represented in the following illustration: A time stamp (current time, resolved in 100µs) always belongs to the first measured value . After a short break the next measured value for the second value position is picked up, etc.

Dr. Staiger, Mohilo + Co GmbH 6. Interface commands Through the RS-232-interface a communication between the UMV 2000 and an operator PC is possible. The ASCII commands to be used are based on SCPI-standards (standard commands for programmable instruments), to allow a simple and understandable communication.
= <number of value packages>, whereby Description: With this command it is possible to reset min.-/max-storages in the UMV 2000. In addition, the contents of the UMV 2000 – ring buffer may be uploaded. Uploading of the ring buffer makes sense, if a triggering has previously been activated in the UMV, and a number of measured values have been intermittently stored in the ring buffer.

To allow a bus operation, a RS 485 converter must be connected at the RS-232 interface of the UMV 2000 and a RS-485 bus must be realized. RTS- and CTS-leads are available at the RS-232-socket of the UMV 2000 (see chapter “Technical specifications of the UMV 2000“.
Note The command INP:GAIN:MULT-command actually represents a valid command of a two- range sensor from Dr. Staiger, Mohilo. The UMV 2000 transfers this command directly to the sensor. After the changeover a confirmation with “0” results. page 67 / 69 Operation manual no.
