Command

Response

Description

S1

ppsee

Read pressure data where ppsee is:
pp = mantissa
s = sign
ee = exponent
When in the “Starting” state, unit returns “Starting”
When in the “Low” state, unit returns “Low”
When high voltage is off, unit returns "0"

S2

yymmdd

Read firmware version, where:
yy = last two digits of year
mm = month
dd = day
