RS-232C bi-directional interface functions
All functions can be duplicated remotely by using the RS-232C
interface. Commands must be sent in uppercase ASCII charac-
ter format followed by a carriage return [CR].
RS-232C Signal: 8 data, 1 stop, no parity. Baud Rate: 19200 bps
RS-232C INTERFACE FUNCTIONS

COMMAND
FUNCTION
RESPONSE*
T[CR]
Select real time mode
R[CR]
P[CR]
Select peak mode
R[CR]
If OR peak is programmed
P[CR] =
peak
If AND peak is programmed
P[CR]
(1st time)= +peak
P[CR]
(2nd time)= – peak
Z[CR]

E[CR]
Read high/low
EXXXXYYYY[CR]
setpoint values (4 digit)
XXXX=High, YYYY=Low
*Note: E[CR] response if the command is not accepted.
