Front Panel Alternate Command (FA)
The Front panel Alternate (FA) command allows you to switch between the currently displayed item and unit
and the alternate item and unit just as if you had pressed the View button.
Example:
@123FA
Acknowledge:
@123 Active Display shows Peak A in Lb
Other Display shows Vall A in Lb
Value Command (V)
This command is used to read the numerical value of a desired item and unit without altering the front panel
display. The format is V(item number)(unit number channel A) (unit number channel B)(repeat), where the
item and unit numbers can be found using the question mark command (see above), and the repeat number
must be 0,1, or 2. Choosing repeat 1 will make the tester send you the desired value once. Choosing repeat
2 will make the tester send the value at approximately 3 second intervals. Choosing repeat 0 will turn off any
values that are being sent by a repeat 2 command.
Item numbers have been added that apply to this command only. They are 50 (Load AB), 51(Peak AB), and 52
(Valley AB) and are viewable with the “?” command.
Example:
@123V01021
Acknowledge:
@123 Peak A 55.676 N
Example 2:
@123V5000002
Acknowledge 2:
@123 Load A 120.45 Lb Load B 99.02 Lb
@123 Load A 125.29 Lb Load B 99.02 Lb
