NOTES
1
Those characters shown inside single quotes ‘ ’, are to be sent as shown in the identifier column
(ASCII representation of characters is used).
2
xx?
is a request to the detector for information, (where
xx
is one of the identifiers in the identifier
tables).
3
The direction that the identifier may be transmitted is with reference to the detector.
(
out
= transmitted by detector,
in
= received by detector ).
4
The “Type” field in the above table is used to categorise the identifiers into their sphere of influence.
Thus :-
F: Factory Setting
P: Product dependent setting.
X: Neither of the above.
5
Note on bargraph values
A count of ten in the bargraph reading transmitted by the detector is equivalent to 1 bargraph led illuminated.
Thus for all bargraph segments to be illuminated a minimum count of 200 would be necessary.
6
Note on timer types.
Not all the timer types use all the parameters that are transmitted with the ‘T’ identifier.
However, the host must always send the correct number of variables to the detector, and similarly, the
detector always responds with the correct number of variables. To alleviate this restriction the detector will
accept the value 0 for those values unused by the selected timer type when transmitted from the host. The
detector in turn will send the current state of these values in its responses, independent of the timer mode.
For customers wishing to control our product via serial link only (without a local Man Machine Interface fitted to the
detector), Safeline recommends to implement an additional set of commands, to ensure full access to factory
settings. This need may arise, if the original factory setting needs to be adjusted or reset.
If the above is required, contact your local supplier for the relevant information.
