firmware versions (5.0.x) did not store the raw ASCII calibration string, and so
only display the interpreted value. Also note that display of individual calibration
coefficients (e.g.
show a0ch1
) is not currently supported.

Modifying configuration parameters with the “
set
” command does not
necessarily mean that those parameters will be retained for use in the next
session with the instrument. When the “
save
” command is issued, all
configuration parameters are placed in persistent storage inside the instrument.
If these parameters are not saved once they are modified, all changes will be
lost when the command console exits or power is removed from the instrument.
The “
save
” command requires no additional command line parameters. Once
the command is issued, it cannot be undone.
IMPORTANT! Once the instrument configuration parameters have been
saved, the instrument must be reset before normal operation can resume.

The
“
sample
” command can be used to test the operation of all sensors on
board the instrument. This may be helpful in diagnosing problems with any of
the instrument’s sensors if some kind of abnormality occurs. Before using this
command, make sure operational power has been applied.
When a sensor is sampled by this command, its value is displayed in
hexadecimal format. This value is simply the number of counts measured by
the sensor’s Analog-to-Digital converter. These values do not represent sensor
output in physical units.
This command takes one command line parameter, which specifies which
sensor to test. If the parameter is a number between “
1
” and “
4
”, the designated
optical channel will be sampled and displayed. If the parameter is “
vreg
”, the
regulated input voltage sensor will be sampled and displayed. If the parameter
is “
vana
”, the analog rail voltage sensor (for operational power) will be sampled
and displayed. The “
temp
” parameter will sample and display the internal
temperature sensor. Using “
all
” as the command line parameter will sample
all sensors; the display will look something like this:
Input voltage regulated: 012B
Analog voltage regulated: 00B1
Temperature sensor: 007A
Optical Channel 1: 9FF99540
Optical Channel 2: 9FFEE740
Optical Channel 3: 9FFBB280
