5.7.1. Alarm Analog Output
Along with the two channel alarms mentioned in section 5.7, there is also an alarm level
analog output for each channel. The analog output is always active and it is not tied to
the alarm logic being on or off. The table below shows the analog output levels for each
alarm. The analog out is available on the DB-9 Serial connector on the right side of the
instrument. See section 7.1 for details.

5.8.1. Report Type
The Report setting determines the output format for the Serial Port. The choices are
NONE, CSV and PRINTER.
When set to NONE, the unit will not automatically output the reading at the end of a
sample to the Serial Port. CSV is a Comma Separated Values output format suitable
for importing into a spreadsheet. PRINTER is the same format as the screen and
optional external printer.
Note: When using the optional external printer, set the report type to PRINTER.
5.8.2. Baud
Use the Baud Rate selection to set the serial communications baud rate. GT-521S
communicates at baud rates from 300
– 38400. The default baud rate is 9600.
