Command:
<SPACE>R<CR>
Reply:
Pressure value pressure units<CR>
Result:
A new pressure reading is transmitted.
Command:
<SPACE>*R<CR>
Reply:
<Pressure value><Pressure units><CR>
Result:
A new pressure reading and the units of pressure measurement are
transmitted.
Query:
n/a
4.4.2 G - Get New Reading and Transmit
This command starts a new “measurement cycle” and, when completed, transmits the
reading.
Command:
<SPACE>G<CR>
Reply:
<Pressure reading><CR>
Result:
Transmission of the reading takes 1.5 times the current measurement
interval set by the Q command.
Command:
<SPACE>*G<CR>
Reply:
<Pressure reading>,<Units><CR>
Result:
Transmission of the reading takes 1.5 times the current measurement
interval set by the Q command.
4.4.3 Z - Read Raw Data
This command sends the last complete “measurement cycle” of the transducer as frequency
and voltage.
Note:
The frequency value is proportional to the applied pressure and the voltage is
proportional to the temperature sensed by the diode.
Command:
<SPACE>Z<CR>
Reply:
<Frequency><Diode voltage><CR>
Command:
<SPACE>*Z<CR>
Reply:
<Frequency (Hz)><Diode voltage (mV)><CR>
In direct mode changes between automatic transmission mode (see A command) and
transmission of the frequency and voltage. In network mode sends the last complete
“measurement cycle” of the transducer as frequency and voltage.
