Electronic Data Processing Commands EDP
The EDP port and commands may be used to set indicator parameters, retrieve indicator parameters, and perform
keypad functions.
To set parameter values, enter the corresponding EDP commands from the terminal. In order to set the parameter
values, use the following format:
“Command=Parameter Value"
For example: To set GRADS (graduations) to 5000, do the following:
grads=5000 (Press "Enter" on the keyboard)
OK
The indicator responds with OK. OK means the setting was valid, and the indicator was in a mode that allowed the
setting to be made.
To retrieve parameter values, send the parameter name. For example: To retrieve the GRADS (graduations) value,
do the following:
grads (Press "Enter" on the keyboard)
5000
The indicator responds with 5000. This means the current value for the parameter GRADS is 5000.
If an unknown command is sent, or a known command is sent, but an attempt is made to set it to an incorrect value,
the indicator will respond with the value as set by the WHAT parameter, either ?? (default) or ?.
