To maintain F250 compatibility, global units are applied when
lockout is ON (and Smart probes are also disabled).

M command
Function:
Requests the instrument to return the PRT reading (temperature or resistance)
and display units every time the display is updated.
Examples:
"A 100.00C", "A273.150K02", "B100.1234R", "D120.1501R04".
Note:
Similar to the
A
command (see A command for further details). The arguments
and return values are slightly different, however.
Syntax
Ma, where a = @, A,B,C,D,I,J,K or L, or
Mab, where a and b specify a switchbox channel number
Parameters
a = @ cancels continuous output
a = A sets PRT to A and sends data when reading available.
a = B sets PRT to B and sends data when reading available.
a = C sets PRT to A-B and sends data when reading available.
a = D sets PRT alternately to A then B and sends data when reading available.
a = I sets PRT to A and sends data with channel number when reading available.,
a = J sets PRT to B and sends data with channel number when reading available.
a = K sets PRT to A-B and sends data with channel number when reading
available.
a = L sets PRT alternately to A then B and sends data with channel number when
reading available.
ab = 16 to 80, sets PRT to a switchbox channel number (if fitted). The CTR5000
channel number is always appended when this command is used (no leading
channel character). Note that 2 digits are required – i.e. a leading 0 is required
when the channel number is less than 10. Preceding channel data is not
supplied.
Initial State:
a = @
