Controller Configuration
Duplex Mode
9.8.2.3
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 calibrator via the
serial interface will be immediately echoed or transmitted back to the device of origin.
With half duplex the commands will be executed but not ech oed. The duplex mode
parameter is indicated by,
dUPL
Flashes “dUPL” and then displays the setting
d=FULL
Current duplex mode setting
The mode may be changed using “UP” or “DOWN” and pressing “SET”.
d=HALF
New duplex mode setting
Linefeed
9.8.2.4
The final parameter in the serial interface menu is the linefeed mode. This pa rameter
enables (on) or disables (off) transmission of a linefeed character (LF, ASCII 10) after
transmission of any carriage-return. The linefeed parameter is indicated by,
LF
Flashes “LF” and then displays the setting
LF= On
Current linefeed setting
The mode may be changed using “UP” or “DOWN” and pressing “SET”.
LF= OFF
New linefeed setting
9.8.3 Calibration Parameters
The operator of the Micro-Bath controller has access to a number of the bath
calibration constants namely R0, ALPHA, DELTA, C0, CG, and rCAL. These values
are set at the factory and should not be altered. The cor rect values are important to
the accuracy and proper and safe operation of the bath. Access to these parameters is
available to the user only so that in the event that the controller memory fails the user
may restore these values to the factory settings. The user should have a list of these
constants and their settings with manual.
Caution: DO NOT change the values of the bath calibration constants from the
factory set values. The correct setting of these parameters is im portant to the
safety and proper operation of the bath.
