Smart Sensor Terminal communication setup

Most terminal programs can be used for

Smart Sensor Terminal

communication with the sensor when connected to

a PC, e.g. Teraterm. A copy of Teraterm is included on the CD following the sensor. Copy the content of the zip file to
the Program File folder on your PC. Start the teraterm.exe file and the terminal program will start up with standard
sensor setup.

The following Smart Sensor Terminal setup should be used:

9600 Baud
8 Data bits
1 Stop bit
No Parity
Xon/Xoff Flow Control

IMPORTANT! The terminal program must send a Line Feed after each Carriage Return.

RS-232/RS-422 operation:

When connected, you will get measurement data according to the output interval stored in the flash memory. If the
measurement interval is set to zero, you can type the command

Reset

to get the operation mode and a single set of

measurement data.

7.2.1

Polled Mode:

Type a command to retrieve data/information from the sensor, refer e.g. chapter 7.1.4, chapter 7.2.6 and chapter
7.2.10for a description of available commands.

7.2.2

Sensor startup

When property

,

StartupInfo

is displayed at sensor power up or after reset.
