7. How to use the communication interface
Setpump_n (The underbar “_” means a space)
Purpose
Setting of the speed level of the internal stirring pump (1 to 10 levels).
Parameter
n where n is an integer between 1 to 10.
Description
BF500 sends an echo back and the ID prompt when it receives this command
from the host and sets n as a new remote pump speed level. The echo back and
the transmission data are as follows:
setpump_n <CR> <LF>
01>
(The underbar
“_” means a space.)
Caution
BF500 accepts this command irrespective of whether it is in the remote state or
not, which is because the remote pump speed level has been set before the
remote operation start command is issued.
Error command
alarm
Purpose
Request for the number of errors and error codes.
Description
BF500 sends an echo back and then the number of errors that occurred
simultaneously and an error code list when it receives this command from the
host. BF500 accepts this command even if the integrated trouble detection
mechanism does not detect any troubles, in which case the number of errors of
0(zero) only will be sent.
For example, if the integrated trouble detection mechanism of BF500 has detected
3 errors that correspond to ”Er.02”, ”Er.07” and “Er.10”, the echo back and the
transmission data will be as follows:
Alarm <CR> <LF>
3 <CR> <LF>
(Number of errors is 3)
Er. 02 <CR> <LF>
(Error 2 occurred)
Er. 07 <CR> <LF>
(Error 7 occurred)
Er. 10 <CR> <LF>
(Error 10 occurred)
01>
