APPENDIX A. STREAMING MODE OF SERIAL OUTPUT
LID-3300IP reports the measurement data and status in the serial
output as explained before in chapter 4.2. This chapter explains the
formats in more detail.
There are three different output formats. The format can be read by
command
RSFORMAT
.
Format 0: variable length
Command
RSFORMAT 0
sets the variable length format.
The output format consists of the following information:
The different fields are delimited with a space character. Fail and Mode
characters have no space between them. Negative temperature values
have a ‘-‘-sign in front of the value, positive values do not. Ice signal
amplitude has an asterisk (*) in front of the value.
-
Example (one temperature sensor):
0F 15.0 *68
No fail, Mode: detecting, ice sensed, heating on, Sensor
temperature 15.0°C, ice signal amplitude 68.
-
Example (two temperature sensors):
0F 15.0 -5.0 *68
No fail, Mode: detecting, ice sensed, heating on, Sensor
temperature 15.0°C, ambient temperature -5.0°C, ice signal
amplitude 68.
Format 1: constant length
Command
RSFORMAT 1
sets the constant length format.
The output format consists of the following information:
The different fields are delimited with a space character. Fail and Mode
characters have no space between them. Temperature values start with
zeros and have a
‘+‘ or ‘-‘ sign in front of the value. Ice signal amplitude
has an asterisk (*) in front of the value. The checksum consist of ASCII
coded hex ‘ 0…F’ and is calculated from all preceding bytes (including
space characters) by adding them together.

Example (one temperature sensor):
0F +015.0 ----.- *068 1 04B8
No fail, Mode: detecting, ice sensed, heating on, Sensor
temperature 15.0°C, ice signal amplitude 68, rsformat 1, checksum
04B8.
-
Example (two temperature sensors):
0F +015.0 -005.0 *068 1 04C9
No fail, Mode: detecting, ice sensed, heating on, Sensor
temperature 15.0°C, ambient temperature -5.0°C, ice signal
amplitude 68, rsformat 1, checksum 04C9.
