6.4 Typical temperature reading sequence
Once all parameters have been set, the following sequence should normally be followed to extract
temperature information from your FOB100 thermometer. 2 procedures can be used for this purpose. The
first method consists in using the “ta” command (preferred), while the second sequence would be:
a)
The host computer should send the “t” (or “t[i]”) command, followed by a
E
character.
b)
The thermometer responds by echoing the requested temperature values, as indicated
above; the transmission is terminated by a “*” character.
c)
When the “*” character is received, it is suggested to immediately terminate the dialog
session by having the host computer issue the “r” command followed by a
E
character.
