5.17 Mode 'TALK ONLY'
The 'TALK ONLY' mode enables to continuously send (at Time Base rate) measured values to
communication port COM1 (RS-232).
All quantities measured by device can be enabled / disabled for automatic sending. For details see
separate chapter Quantities.
Format of sent information can be LONG or SHORT. LONG format was used in older versions of
firmware and is supported for compatibility reasons. New SHORT format is more effective because of
fewer characters used in it.
All configuration parameters of this mode are saved in configuration and can be controlled in
Measure / Talk Only menu or by commands.
5.17.1 LONG format description
"<codeLF>:<channel>=<value><SI><cr><If>"
Explanation of expressions:
<codeLF>
