Inficon IC/5/6 Data Logger/Plotter

The FTG Software IC/5 Data Logger (IC5dlog.exe) for Windows continuously acquires data during deposition. This enables users to troubleshoot coating runs and develop improved techniques for high yield deposition. A separate version (IC6dlog.exe) supports the IC6. Plotting program (IC56plot.exe) which works with both versions. These modules utilize FilmStar CRYSTAL components
 


The program is simple to operate. Use Setup to specify baud rate and COM port (IC/5 & 6) or LAN IP address (IC6 only). Use Select to specify quantities to be captured (IC/5 only). Enter a valid file name (program will create a new file if it doesn't already exist).

Settings and the datalog file name are automatically retained in c:\windows\ic5dlog.ini or ic6dlog.ini when you exit the program. You can use the IC/5 and IC6 off-line in test mode to generate trial data.

Set IC/5 RS-232 Checksum to YES (does not apply to IC6)

A straight through (M-F) RS-232 cable is utilized, not a null modem cable. If using a LAN connection (IC6 only) a crossover cable is required.
