9.5 Printer Output Port Functions
The Printer port on the back of the BAM 1020 is an output-only RS-232 serial interface which
may be used with a serial printer or as a diagnostic output to a computer. The printer port
output can be configured by using the “
a
”
utility command through the main RS-232 port.
(See section 9.4) The output may be set for data printouts, fixed-width data output, or one of
two diagnostic modes. Diagnostic modes are not used except by a factory technician.
A configuration has been added for the printer port which enables it to output a fixed-width
concentration report at the end of the sample period, which can be used to interface to a
serial data logger. This output is enabled by using the
“z” utility command through the serial
port. The output format is date, time, concentration, and flow volume as shown below.
Format in mg/m3 is:
mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss,+99.999,+9.999
Format in
g/m3 is:
mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss,+9.999
