Communication Protocols
Communication with all analyzers through the RS-485 connection uses
the following word format:
• 8 data bits
• 1 stop bit
• No Parity
In addition, the baud rate is fixed at 9600bps.
The communication protocol is a basic master/slave, command/response
protocol. The master initiates each communication transfer. There is one
master on the communication line, but there can be multiple sensors act-
ing as slaves. Up to 32 sensors can be connected on one network.
