Sample Period
The sample period is the next parameter in the serial interface parameter menu.
The sample period is the time period in seconds between temperature measure-
ments transmitted from the serial interface. If the sample rate is set to 5, the
bath transmits the current measurement over the serial interface approximately
every five seconds. The automatic sampling is disabled with a sample period of
0. The sample period is indicated by,
SAmPLE

Press “SET” to choose to set the sample period. The current sample period
value will be displayed.
SA= 1
Current sample period (seconds)
Adjust the value with “UP” or “DOWN” and then use “SET” to set the sample
rate to the displayed value.
SA= 60
New sample period

Duplex Mode
The next parameter is the duplex mode. The duplex mode may be set to full du-
plex or half duplex. With full duplex any commands received by the bath via
the serial interface are immediately echoed or transmitted back to the device of
origin. With half duplex the commands are executed but not echoed. The du-
plex mode parameter is indicated by,
dUPL
Serial duplex mode parameter
