1. Outline
1) The following data is exchanged between the AU2700/5400 and the host computer system.
(1) Test Requisition Information (T.R.I.)
(2) Test Results
2) The data transmission is conducted in either of the following mode:
(1) Class A Transmission is without synchronizing with analysis. This mode does not utilize the ACK/NAK protocol.
(2) Class B Transmission is synchronizing with analysis. This mode does utilize the ACK/NAK protocol.
3) The Following format and protocol can be selected by [PARAMETER] [ONLINE] menu.

A. When powering ON or OFF the host computer system, ensure that the AU2700/5400 is in
Standy mode. Powering ON or OFF the host computer system while the AU2700/5400 is being operated may
result in abnormality function of the AU2700/5400.
B. The cable for host communication is not included in the AU2700/5400 standard accessories.
A shielded cable must be used for host connection.
C. Do not use the terminals on the AU2700/5400 other than No. 2,3,5,7, or 8 for any purpose.
