B-11
internal temp
This reports the current internal instrument temperature. The first temperature reading is
the temperature being used in instrument calculations. The second temperature is the
actual temperature being measured. If temperature compensation is on, then both
temperature readings are the same. If temperature compensation is off, a temperature of
30
° C is used as the default temperature even though the actual internal temperature is
27.2 ° C. The example below shows that temperature compensation is on and that the
internal temperature is 27.2 ° C.
Send:
"internal temp"
Receive: "internal temp 27.2 deg C, actual 27.2"
temp comp
This reports whether temperature compensation is on or off. The example below shows a
typical response to this command.
