If communications are working the sensor will respond with “Biral Sensor Startup”.
5. Check Data Transmission To Sensor:
Send the command R? from the PC terminal to the sensor:
The sensor will respond with its Remote Self-Test & Monitoring Message.
For example:
100,2.509,24.1,12.3,5.01,12.5,00.00,00.00,100,105,107,00,00,00,+021.0,4063
6. Check Data Transmission From Sensor:
If the sensor is NOT in polled mode:
Wait for the sensor to transmit a Data Message (approx. 80 seconds from power
up).
If the sensor is in polled mode:
Send the command D? from the PC terminal to the sensor:
A Data Message will be transmitted immediately.
7. MOR Calibration check:
Carry out the calibration check procedure in section 5, page 40 to ensure that the
MOR value changes (i.e. the sensor responds to changes in visibility).
NOTE: as this calibration check is being carried out indoors the MOR value will
NOT agree with that marked on your calibration reference plaque.
NB The sensor is fully calibrated before it leaves Biral.
THIS PROCEDURE CAN ONLY BE COMPLETED IF A SUITABLE
SWS – LW CALIBRATION KIT AND PC ARE AVAILABLE
