#M[x];
x=1 will mute the audio alarm; x=0 will allow the audio alarm
to work normally
#E;
The RapidVap will respond to this command with a numeric
value as follows :’”1"’=indicates an endpoint has been reached;
“0”=endpoint has not been reached
#e;
The RapidVap will respond to this command with a numeric
value as follows: 0=all functions are normal; “1”=lid is open;
“2”=communication problem; “3” and later numbers will be
established later as specific error messages
Note: When controlling the RapidVap using the RS-232 link, all control parameters
will be entered into program 9.
Note: All of the above commands can be sent with no numeric value, that is
‘#[command];’ (without value) to read out the setpoint and actual value without
changing the setpoint.
Note: There is no command for the vacuum release button on the front panel since
this button is momentary in nature – the “#V0000;” command will bleed the
vacuum chamber to atmospheric pressure.
Note: The above commands can be sent at a maximum rate of one command per
second.
