6.7.3. REMOTE IDAS CONFIGURATION
Editing channels, parameters and triggering events as described in 6.7 is much more conveniently done in one
step through the APICOM remote control program using the graphical interface shown in Figure 6-6-4. Refer to
Section 6.15 for details on remote access to the M200EH/EM analyzer.

Once an iDAS configuration is edited (which can be done offline and without interrupting DAS data collection), it
is conveniently uploaded to the instrument and can be stored on a computer for later review, alteration or
documentation and archival. Refer to the APICOM manual for details on these procedures. The APICOM user
manual (Teledyne Instruments part number 039450000) is included in the APICOM installation file, which can be
downloaded at http://www.teledyne-api.com/software/apicom/.
Although Tel
edyne Instruments recommends the use of APICOM, the iDAS can also be
accessed and
configured through a terminal emulation program such as HyperTerminal (Figure 6-6-5). However, all
configuration commands must be created followin
g a strict syntax or be pasted in from of a text file, which was
edited offline and then uploaded through a specific transfer procedure.
