It can only be done with the 635A version. The 635 will have software revision 2,0 and there will be a 9 pin male serial connector on the top of the unit. The tester can print test results and setup information automatically or on demand (when you press the PRINT key). This article shows you how to set up the tester to enable automatic printing or manual printing of test results.
Hinweis: The 635 QuickBERT-T1 has dynamic memory. This means all data will be lost when the unit is powered off or removed from the circuit under test.
There are two methods for printing a report with the 635 QuickBERT-T1.
- Printing to a printer.
- Printing to a Hyper Terminal.

ii. Auto: (for automatic printing) prints automatically when the tester detects an error or alarm condition (bit error, BPV error, Frame error or CRC error).
Hinweis: If Auto is selected, you can also press the PRINT key to print results.
b) Baud has four settings: 2,4, 4,8, 9,6, and 19,2.

- Follow the 635 QuickBERT-T1 set from above.
- Open a Hyper terminal session on the PC. The most common path to Hyper Terminal: Start/Program Files/Accessories/Communications/Hyper Terminal.
- Name your HyperTerminal session and choose the COM port that the Serial cable is connected to.
 
- Change the Baud rate to match the settings on the 635 QuickBERT-T1 and press OK.
- You can print at any time by pressing the PRINT key. However, if Auto is selected, the tester will automatically print a report if it detects an error or an alarm.
