- The following is a list of commands used to setup the Q-300 via RS-232. The display will automatically
switch to the " on " display when commands are being received.
Setup Commands
- Duplicates the setup menu functions.
Omitting parameters w, x, y, or z will return the
current setting. The dosimeter number should be
included. Refer to Section 3.3 for details on setting
the following parameters.
AOTx enables or disables Auto On feature. x = Y for enabled,
x = N for disabled.
AOTSvv:ww:xx:yy:zz sets the auto on time. vv = month, ww =
day, xx = hour (0 to 24), yy = minutes, zz =
seconds.
BAUDxxxxx sets the baud rate for serial communications.
xxxxx = 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 or 19200.
CALxxxx sets the calibration SPL, where xxxx = the SPL of
the calibrator (no decimal point, 1143 = 114.3dB). Set
range is 900 to 1250.
PRLL sets communications for a parallel printer.
FLOWx enables or disables flow control for RS-232.
x = Y for ON, x = N for OFF or no flow control
EOLxx sets the end of line character for serial
communications, either carriage return, line feed or a
combination of the two. xx = C, CL, L or LC
where
C = carriage return and L = line feed.
ERxy sets the exchange rate. x = 1, 2 or 3 for dosimeter 1,
2 or 3. y = 3, 4, 5 or 6.
INxx sets the printout interval, where xx = 1, 5, 10, 15, 30
or 60 (Minutes)
LHx enables or disables data logging. x = Y for enabled,
x = N for logging disabled.
PRNx sets the items to print. x = 0 through 7

PRTx enables or disables the programmed run duration.
x = Y for enabled, x = N for disabled.
PRTDxx:yy sets the programmed run duration where xx =
hours, yy = minutes.
THxyyy sets the integration threshold. x = 1, 2 or 3 for
dosimeter 1, 2 or 3. yyy = 40 to 140, 0 for OFF
TIMExx:yy sets the clock where xx = hours (0 to 24),
yy = minutes
DATExx/yy/zzzz sets the calendar. xx = month, yy = day,
zzzz = year.
CLxyyy sets the criterion level. x = 1, 2 or 3 for dosimeter
1, 2 or 3. yyy = 40 - 140.
RESPxy sets the response time. x = 1, 2 or 3 for dosimeter 1,
2 or 3. y = F or S.
ULxyyy sets the upper limit level. x = 1, 2 or 3 for
dosimeter 1, 2 or 3. yyy = 40 - 140.
WGTx sets the weighting. x = A or C.
RNGx sets the measuring range. x = H for high (70-140dB), or
x = L for low (40-110dB) range
PTDx sets the Projected Dose Time. x = 1 - 18 (hours)
Security Commands
- Note: Security function SE2 does not affect the ability to change parameters via RS-232.
SEyz enables or disables the SEy security feature, where y =
1 or 2. z = Y for security ON, z = N for
security OFF.
SEyzzzz sets the security code. y = 1 for SE1 or 2 for SE2.
zzzz = equals the security code.
Function Commands
OFF
turns the unit off. Caution: unit cannot be turned on via remote control. Auto On must be enabled with a valid
date and time for the unit to turn on automatically.
PRINT will return the printout.
RESET clears the memory.
FACTORY clears the data memory and resets all setup menu
parameters to factory settings.
